Welcome to the Emery Down Village Website --

a website for the village by the village.  It brings together all the key areas of village life - the Almshouses, Church, Local History Group, Phone Box, Pubs and the Village Hall - and includes information specific to the New Forest.
​It is the place where you can join the Email Lists for local news and events in the village as well as the Neighbourhood Watch group.

New Forest ponies
The New Forest pony is part of the traditional forest scene and has been for more than a thousand years.  Although the ponies are owned they are left to live as wild out in the forest.
​
Please follow The New Forest Code.
  • Keep your distance.
  • Do not touch.
  • Do not feed.
  • Angry ponies will kick or even bite and may move very quickly.
  • Keep dogs under close control:  Use a lead if you are unsure how your dog will react to the ponies moving around.
In addition, in the Spring and early Summer please:
  • Give mares and foals plenty of space.
and follow the advice given on these posters (pony wellbeing and keeping safe) which will help us to care for our ponies and keep ourselves safe.

Church opening hours
Daily for private prayer: 10am to 4pm approximately.
Public worship on second and fourth Sundays at 11 am and occasionally on third Sunday at 6pm.

Please see the church website, Facebook and A Church Near You for further details.

​Living with COVID-19 plan
Everybody needs to continue to act carefully and remain cautious.  A number of organisations in the local area have opted to continue following the ‘hands, face, space’ guidance on a voluntary basis.  Please be aware of this and be kind.  We share responsibility to keep others safe as well as ourselves - hands, face, space and fresh air will help keep the New Forest safe.
​

Commemorating the First World War
A project to research the men whose names are inscribed on the Lychgate in Emery Down is underway. Please get in touch if you wish to be involved in any way - as a researcher or if you are a relative of any of the men whose names are listed.  Click the link to see the poster seeking your help for contact details.
