Ringwood : Star Lane, Green Door & Sign
Walking down the alley, you have a door which you have to beware of in case it does what doors generally do and opens.
Could cause a nasty head injury if you didn't read this sign and were fully aware to beware of it - maybe they should have these on all dangerous doors?

Market Place
The Market Place proper is immediately behind the camera, but the Wednesday market is held all along this street. The shop with the green sign is Lambert & Wiltshire (gunsmiths and country clothing). It has been a gunsmiths since at least 1950. The lane on the left beyond the yellow-signed Forest Jade restaurant is Star Lane which leads to The Furlong.

Ringwood: old bank on the Market Place
Looking along West Street as it opens onto the Market Place, an imposing frontage faces us, that of Old Bank House, whose title makes plain the original use of the building.

Market Place
This is the reciprocal of
Image The cream-coloured building on the left is named The Old Bank House and is now residential flats. In the 1960s I think it used to be the offices of Ormiston, Knight and Payne (estate agents and auctioneers, known as Ormiston, Knight & Hudson in 1954). They used to hold auctions in premises on the west side of the timber yard (site now a Waitrose supermarket).

Ringwood: the Market Place
Looking across the Market Place as it broadens from the High Street, which is along in the distance behind the lamppost.
There can be few non-coastal towns which have sprawled so much in one direction from the town centre but not in the other. Ringwood's suburbs extend towards the east and yet, behind us, there is only a few hundred yards before we are in open countryside.
