The most important building in Lyndhurst is the Queen's House, which has also in the past been called the King's House, for the name changes according to the gender of the monarch. It is the principal building owned by the Crown in the New Forest, and contains the Verderers' Hall, home of the ancient Verderers' Court. The Queen's House is also the local headquarters of the Forestry Commission. The current structure largely dates from the 17th century, during the reigns of Charles I and Charles II. The building is a rambling two-storey structure in brick. The prisoners' dock, tables and chairs of considerable age are preserved in the hall.

The Knightwood Oak is a pedunculate oak and the largest, and perhaps most famous, oak tree in the New Forest, in southern England. It is also known as the Queen of the Forest. It is over 500 years old and has a girth of 7.38 m. The tree is still growing. It was pollarded when about 200 years old and is thought to have been last pollarded in the mid 19th century.
The Portuguese Fireplace is a war memorial in the New Forest National Park. It is near to Millyford Bridge and is used as a Waymark. Because it was also operated by the Canadian Forestry Corps, it is also referred to locally as the Canadian Fireplace.

The only surviving example of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's architectural experimentation. Local folklore records it as the site of a dragon-slaying (see "Bisterne Dragon" above), and as being haunted by the ghost of Richard Fitzgeorge de Stacpoole, 1st Duc de Stacpoole. As of 2020, it is not open to the public. A proposed redevelopment of the site would save the historic portion of the building.

Bolderwood is an area of the New Forest in Hampshire. Bolderwood hosts a deer sanctuary with a public deer observation platform. As a result, the public car park at Bolderwood is the most visited in the New Forest. From here the Bolderwood Arboretum Ornamental Drive links to the A35 passing close to the Knightwood Oak, one of the largest trees in the New Forest.
