Trees Tree symbols are scattered about the map over the New Forest area. Elsewhere they are less used. A group can be seen which might be East Bere Forest. Roughly where West Bere Forest is there is a detached label:-
Forrest
the 'Beare' has become attached to Weeke, as Beareweeke.
Other forests, eg:-
BUCKHOLT FOREST
CHURE FORREST
are labelled but have no tree symbols. There are trees in some parks.
