Burley.

Burley. Lovely walk in the New Forest today, starting at the car park opposite the cricket ground and walking south over Turf hill to Greenberry bridge on the dismantled railway track. Cross the railway track and continue until you almost reach Holmsley Lodge. Turn right onto a wide track heading west over Holmsley Ridge where you will soon come to the first of the three ponds. Continue on this track to reach Whitten pond (two ponds here). A nice spot for a picnic. Now take the path north to the railway track once again. You can either go left to go around the tiny stream at the car park before turning right and heading over Burbush hill. Or turn right for a short distance on the old railway track bed and then left up to cross the hill. You can stay on this track to reach the car park or turn left at Goats pen cottages and the right on the main track. The car park is a short distance further on through the woodland.
