Abstract
The Gazetteer of New Forest Houses is a list of the larger country houses in the New Forest area, together with a list of their residents and owners from about 1850 to about 1920, which resulted from my MA dissertation submitted to the University of Winchester in 2012, ‘A Country House or a House in the Country?’ In this paper I shall talk about the scope and contents of the gazetteer; how the various parts of it relate; what sources I used; and how it might continue to evolve.
