Wills and Probate Solicitors in Lymington

Some homes in and around the New Forest carry common rights, such as the right to graze ponies or cattle on the open forest. These rights belong to the land, not the owner personally. They pass with the property and can affect its value. Animals still out on the forest on the date of death must be rounded up, sold or transferred to a new owner. Marking fees and registrations also have to be updated with the bodies that manage the forest.

Lymington is a port town and yachting centre in the New Forest district of Hampshire, on the Lymington River where it meets the Solent opposite the Isle of Wight. The quay and the sloping High Street lead up to St Thomas’s Church. The Iron Age earthworks of Buckland Rings lie just to the north. Wills and probate solicitors in Lymington can handle the commoning arrangements, value the property and manage the sale. Practices around SO41 take on this work.
