ALICE HOLT FOREST, a royal forest on the E border of Hants; near the Alton railway, between Binstead and Farnham. It measures about 2 miles by 2. It was formerly stocked with fallow deer, and kept thickly wooded; and it still contains many stately trees. Much rude ancient pottery has been found in it, and is supposed to have been manufactured on the spot by the aboriginal Britons.
