Rossmore, play facility
Arne Avenue Play Facility. On the link photo, it is shown as "play area"; I wonder why the council had to rename it in such an unfriendly manner? http://www.leisureprojects.net/Playbuilder/arneavenue.htm

Branksome: postbox № BH12 103, Aspen Gardens
This postbox is currently missing its information plate; indeed missing the border that would keep it in place. The little sticker is one of those that were affixed in autumn 2007 explaining that Sunday collections would cease from 27 October that year (these were put on every box since the majority that did not have Sunday collections had details of the nearest that did) – so presumably the plate has been missing at least since then.
