In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Bucklershard like this:
BUCKLERSHARD, a village in Beaulieu parish, Hants; on Beaulieu creek, 6 miles ENE of Lymington. It was designed by the second Duke of Montague to be a town, with sugar refineries in connection with his West India estates; and had, for some time, several ship-yards; but is now of little importance.
