Welcome to Ringwood Natural History Society's Home Page

The Society was founded in 1958: to share with others an interest in Natural History;
to provide an opportunity to learn more of the subject through talks and outings; to take
an active interest in local nature conservation; to keep records of local flora and fauna.

Indoor meetings are held at Greyfriars in Ringwood, from September until April,
at 7.30pm on the 2nd and 4th Thursday in the month.
Recent talks have included one on "Marine Biology" by Steve Trewhella,
"Wandering around Wight" by Brian Fletcher,
"Canford Arboretum" by Andy Beale,
"Funghi of the New Forest" by Stuart Skeats,
and, "Raptors of the New Forest" by Head Keeper Andy Page..

If you are interested in Natural History, do join one of our walks,
or meet up with us for a get-together.
We normally take a picnic lunch during the summer months, and in winter
there are opportunities for those not walking to join us for a pub lunch.

Recent trips further afield have included four days at Hartland Quay
on the North Devon “Wreckers’ Coast and four days in the Forest of Dean.
