A pretty seaside village,
Milford-on-Sea is surrounded by magnificent
scenery and has a long coastal path with
spectacular views. A shingle spit leads to
Hurst Castle - now owned by English Heritage -
which was built by Henry VIII to help defend
the south coast. The village started life as a
Saxon settlement, later becoming important for
the refining of sea salt. A passenger ferry
runs from Hurst Castle to the nearby
fishing-cum-yachting hamlet of Keyhaven. |
