Denny Wood--Registration with VESPA is required

Sun 11 Oct 2026

Directions: Park at the Shatterford car park, which is about 3 miles to the South East of Lyndhurst in the New Forest on the B3056. You can find Lyndhurst either by leaving the M27 at Jn1 and taking the A337 South to Lyndhurst. You will need to follow the one way system in Lyndhurst for a short way before taking the A35 to Southampton for 200yds and then turning right onto the B3056. To avoid Lyndhurst leave the M27 at Jn2 and take the A236 south to Ashurst where you leave the road at a complex junction following signs to Ashurst and Colbury on the A35. On the outskirts of Lyndhurst take the B3056 on the left just before the large Lyndhurst Park Hotel.

This survey is being run jointly between HFRG and the New Forest Biodiversity Forum. Anyone planning to attend should register with VESPA, after which they should get invitations to register separately for each VESPA survey, including the mid-week fungus ones not included on this program.

Meting time will be provided when you register with VESPA.

In addition, please note that Forestry England have now introduced a parking charge for the New Forest and attendees will need to organise this themselves.

Please be mindful of others and do not attend any event if you:

  • Have any symptoms of Covid-19
  • Have been in contact with an infected individual
