A Natural History Unit film with photography by Eric Ashby and William Morris.

Every summer, the trunk roads which cross the New Forest carry thousands of holidaymakers on their way to and from the coast. Yet only a few people know this unique stretch of country intimately, and even fewer are familiar with the animals that live within it.
Music composed by Sidney Sager and played by the Melos Ensemble
