Denny Lodge is a civil parish in the New Forest in Hampshire, England. It covers a large area of heathland and woodland encompassing much of the eastern side of the New Forest, but contains no towns, villages, churches, or schools.
The parish of Denny Lodge extends from Matley Heath in the north, to King's Copse Inclosure in the south. It is bounded by, but does not include, the towns and villages of Ashurst, Lyndhurst, Brockenhurst, Beaulieu, Fawley and Hythe. The parish is bisected by the South Western Main Line railway from Ashurst to Brockenhurst, and by the B3056 road from Lyndhurst to Beaulieu. The isolated Beaulieu Road railway station is at the centre of the parish, where road and rail cross.
The parish is mostly heathland and bogland, intermixed with 20th-century forest inclosures. All of the woodlands are administered by the Forestry Commission as Crown woodland. Many of the forest inclosures on the eastern border of the parish were planted in the 1960s in an attempt to screen the area from the industrial landscape alongside Southampton Water.
The parish has no church, no school, no public hall, but does contain four pubs. The parish forms part of the New Forest district of the county of Hampshire. The parish has a population of 315 people living in 140 households.
