About

Milton ward is located in the southeast of the New Forest district, centred on the village of Milton. The area is characterised by a mix of residential development and open countryside, bordering the tidal waters of the Solent to the south. It includes the coastal settlement of Barton-on-Sea, known for its eroding clay cliffs, and the village of Ashley, which lies inland.

The landscape transitions from coastal cliffs to heathland and farmland. A notable feature is the presence of the Chewton Bunny watercourse, which runs through a wooded ravine to the sea. The area's geology, particularly the unstable cliffs, is a defining aspect, influencing land use and coastal management strategies.
