West Parley: Gallows Drive
Gallows Drive is at the very corner of the gridsquare and also at the very limit of my 2km radius from home. The sign here is a modern one with the logo of East Dorset District Council, which was absolved in the Local Government Reorganisation of April 2019 when Dorset became a unitary authority and the districts under it were abolished.
This is photo no.155 of a series of 453 in my coronavirus lockdown walking project:

West Parley: Christchurch Road
Looking west from Parley Cross along this normally busy road, with a common name in this neck of the woods because, of course, Christchurch is a nearby town and several roads lead there. It is only a small segment of Christchurch Road which is within the 2km radius of my project, but we are outside the circle here as this is the nearest sign.
It is a modern East Dorset District Council sign featuring its logo at the left-hand end, which will become rarer as the years go by because in April 2019 East Dorset District Council was abolished and became part of the unitary Dorset Council.

West Parley: Elm Tree Walk
Looking along this short road which starts along the back of the Parley Cross shops and then has a 90º corner to arrive here at Ridgeway. We glimpse one of the bungalows which are typical of the area.
The sign is an ordinary East Dorset District one from the 80s, mounted on original pyramid-topped stone posts from a previous sign, probably one of the Wimborne & Cranborne Rural District Council ones such as here: Image
