Welcome to our history society. The Parish of Copythorne is within the New
Forest boundaries in Hampshire, Great Britain. After having a "Down Memory Lane"
photo exhibition in 2005, so many people asked when our group met, we decided to
start one. We now have evening meetings once a month held in Copythorne Parish
Hall. These have been very popular with about 50 residents attending each time.
We also have a yearly exhibition where we display photographs, maps and stories
of the parish.
