Join me for a winter walk around Stanpit Marsh, Christchurch (UK) — a stunning Site of Special Scientific Interest with tidal marshes, wildlife, hidden history, and a few surprises along the way 🌿 This easy 1.6‑mile loop takes us across frosty paths, boardwalks, and salt‑marsh channels as we explore: What’s in this video The Stanpit Marsh trig point and how triangulation shaped the mapping of Britain A look at salt‑marsh ecology, tides, and why this landscape is so unique The story behind the prototype Bailey Bridge built during WWII The smuggling history of Mother Siller’s Channel A stranded WWII Liberty Ship lifeboat washed ashore in the 1953 storm Views across to Hengistbury Head, Christchurch Harbour, and the Isle of Wight Local wildlife including ponies, birds, bullrushes, and the marsh’s methane “bubble” phenomenon A visit to the TS Aristes Sea Scout Hut, linked to the 1784 Battle of Mudeford Quay Foraging notes on samphire, rose hips, and wild apples A few tidal mishaps… and why checking tide tables matters!
