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 Village Hall, Church, Almshouses and the village Telephone Kiosk. In addition, you will find a village forum for discussion topics and a calendar of upcoming events in Emery Down, Lyndhurst or in the near vicinity. There are also dedicated pages for the Church, the local history group 'How We Used To Live', the Village Hall, the Telephone Kiosk and the Almshouses, as well as a village small ads page for use by the village to promote events, advertise their village-based businesses, post small ads etc.. News & Events Current state of Mill Lane traffic problems Click here for the latest update from Minstead and Lyndhurst Parish Councils 8th Annual Plant and Cake Sale Please accept a huge vote of thanks for the generous support you gave to the Plant Sale last Saturday. So many of you baked cakes, grew plants and donated items of bric-à-brac or bottles for the tombola stall. We can only apologise for the traffic problems on the day, the queues at the gate and at the refreshment table, but not for the chat and laughter that was heard at the event. All proceeds are to go to CAFOD’s work in Ethiopia and the current total is in excess of £3,600 which is another record for the event. Plans are already afoot for the ninth sale which will be next May. With our good wishes and grateful thanks. Henry and Nuala Rosenvinge. Commemorating the First World War A project to research the men whose names are inscribed on the lych gate in Emery Down is underway. Please get in touch with Sara 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.
