St Barbe is situated within the New Forest, Lymington. The New Forest has a very varied coastal and forest landscape with approximately 22 villages, all with its own unique character and culture. The area is classified as significantly rural, with pockets of deprivation and social isolation due to lack of transport and inadequate access to services. In the summer of 2017 the museum and gallery reopened its doors after a multi-million pound refurbishment, securing the future of the building for future generations. The size of the gallery was increased to hold much larger exhibitions and hold pieces from galleries such as the Tate. A new cafe opened at the front of the foyer, serving hot and cold drinks, cakes, sandwiches and meals. The gift shop is located just behind this, with items sourced from the local area, and parking clocks that can be used around the local area. For a small fee that goes towards maintaining St Barbe, you can access the gallery and museum, with previous exhibitions such as 'Erie', 'Dinosaurs on your Doorstep' and 'Contemporary Cuts'.

Buckland Rings is the site of an Iron Age hill fort in the town of Lymington, Hampshire. Today, the mounds and dykes around the outside which once constituted its defences are still clearly visible, although the outer bank lies under the road on the west side, and on the south-east it is nearly ploughed-out. Excavations of the inner and middle ramparts in 1935 revealed that they were of wall-and-fill construction, retained at the front by upright timber beams and walls of cut and laid turf. The entrance, which lies on the east side, was also excavated revealing a long entrance passage and the postholes for a pair of stout gateposts. The site was bought by Hampshire County Council in 1989 to ensure its preservation, and it is open to the public from the A337 road onto which part of it faces.
