Weather vane, The Old Forge
As long as humans have farmed the land, sailed the seas and contemplated their place in nature, the wind has played a key role in their speculations. It was interpreting the wind's changing direction that helped our ancestors predict the coming weather and survive.

Holdenhurst: Holdenhurst Village Road
This road has recently been renamed Holdenhurst Village Road, having previously been without the 'Village'.
The reason is that Holdenhurst Road, which ran from Bournemouth town centre to this point, is now cut off about a mile southwest – the section from the town is a busy, major road, whereas this part is a country lane that leads only to Holdenhurst Village. This had caused problems with motorists using satellite navigation, who found themselves in the pleasant but dead-end village, and if they were in anything large could not turn round!
