unrated)About The Rufus Stone
The Rufus Stone Car park is situated within ancient wood pasture on the eastern edge of the Forest. A short stroll takes you to the famous memorial to King William II. Many stories abound but it is said that an arrow shot at a stag by one Walter Tyrrell glanced off a tree and killed the King.
How to get there:
The Rufus Stone is in New Forest.
By car: from Junction 1 of the M27, head along the B3078 towards Fordingbridge. At Brook turn right along a narrow road towards the Sir Walter Tirel pub and the car park is situated on the left hand side just past the pub.
Brook is the nearest town or village.
