Ringwood is the Western Gateway to the beautiful New Forest, at a crossing point of the River Avon. For centuries it has been the traditional market town of the New Forest with its market charter dating back to 1226.
Ringwood still has a lively Wednesday morning street market and has remained a delightful, unspoilt historic town with both quaint and modern shops, street entertainment, restaurants, pubs and cafes.
Our responsibilities include administration of three allotment sites, Carvers Recreation Ground, Ringwood Cemetery, the War Memorial and grounds, Jubilee Gardens, Dr Little Gardens, play areas, public seats, bus shelters and a good order of open space and common land.
On 20th January 2007, Ringwood became the first town in the New Forest to obtain Fairtrade accreditation. |
