Ringwood: damaged postbox information plate
Detail of the collection plate on Image The ring of numbers would originally have indicated which collection was next, in the days when collection times throughout the day were advertised. The postman could advance the dial by one when he emptied the box; the relevant figure would show through a circular hole in the display. Nowadays, only the final collection time is given and the replacement information display, which is starting to peel off badly, covered the previous hole.

Ringwood, station site
Once the site of Ringwood railway station, closed in 1967; later, the site of scrap merchants, now vacant. The road (known as Embankment Way to the North) has been barred with concrete blocks, presumably to deter fly-tipping; new office/warehouse/light industrial units to the left.
Further information on the station and associated railway, including pictures before closure, can be found at http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/r/ringwood/index.shtml

Evening Primrose, Ringwood
I associate Oenothera biennis with railway sidings and track sides and here it is growing in abundance on wasteland around the site of the former Ringwood station, just off Embankment Way.

Castleman Way, Ringwood
The modern road has been approximately following the line of the Dorchester to Southampton railway line, and is "named after Charles Castleman, a Wimborne Solicitor, who was responsible for building the original railway line" http://www.dorsetforyou.com/castlemantrailway . Here it begins to veer away to north. On the left is the junction with Waterloo Way into a housing estate whose roads bear the names of four London railway termini.
