Stanpit Marsh is situated on the north side of Christchurch Harbour, just below the confluence of the rivers Avon and Stour. The 65 hectare site has an unusual combination of habitats including salt marsh with creeks and salt pans, reed beds, freshwater marsh, gravel estuarine banks and sandy scrub. It was designated as a Local Nature Reserve in 1964 and in 1986 as a Site of Special Scientific Interest. The Marsh is home to over 300 species of plants, 14 of which are nationally rare and endangered. Stanpit Marsh requires dogs to be on a lead at all times and the area is subject to a dog control order. Stanpit Recreation Ground (adjacent) is suitable for dogs to run off lead. An interesting fact, is that Harry Gordon Selfridge (of the Selfridge's Department Store fame) used to own this land, as well as Hengistbury Head, while he lived for a time at nearby Highcliffe Castle.
