Ellingham is a small village near Ringwood in Hampshire, England, west of the New Forest National Park. Ellingham is most famous for the story of Alice Lisle, who was executed by the infamous Judge Jeffreys in 1685, on the charge of harbouring fugitives after the defeat of the Monmouth Rebellion. ==Overview== Ellingham is a small village near Ringwood in Hampshire. It contains the hamlet of Rockford, and Moyles Court, the large house which is now a school. The village and surrounding countryside are a large tourist attraction in the summer months. Much of the area around Ellingham was once farmland and woodland, but since the 1950s sand and gravel extraction has created a series of lakes known collectively as Blashford Lakes.〔(Blashford Lakes ), Hampshire & Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust〕 These lakes now separate Ellingham church from the rest of the former parish around Rockford and Moyles Court. Alice Lisle has an inn named after her in Rockford. Ellingham was a civil parish until 1974, when the parish was amalgamated with the parishes of Harbridge and Ibsley.
