About

Dibden & Dibden Purlieu is a ward situated on the western fringe of the New Forest National Park, bordering the waters of Southampton Water. The area comprises the older village of Dibden and the larger, more modern residential settlement of Dibden Purlieu, which expanded significantly in the mid-20th century. Its landscape is characterised by a mix of housing estates, woodland fringes, and open heathland that leads into the protected forest enclosures.

The ward's location places it adjacent to the major container port of Southampton, with views across the water to the industrial terminals of the Eastern Docks. A network of footpaths provides access from the residential streets directly into the open forest, where ponies and cattle graze. The historic Dibden Church and its surrounding fields offer a contrast to the suburban layout, sitting near the shore of the Hythe Marina.
