Trees
|
Woods and forests, on Morden's map of Hampshire, are shown by
little trees. Many of the trees appear to be no more than
decoration but as this symbol probably has a low priority
the distribution cannot be taken with to be very reliable or
significant. Many parks are shown filled with trees. Trees,
outside the parks, sometimes seem to be grouped into woods or
forests; in many cases these groupings can be identified with
the royal forests of a previous age. These forests on Morden's
map are listed below.
We have not attempted to explore the relationships of all
groups of trees on the map with woods today.
