Description
The wall surrounding the south of the churchyard of St Peter and St Paul is a retaining wall built in the 18th century. It is made of brick with a stone coping and features a cast-iron safe. The wall runs around the south and west sides of the churchyard, standing between 1 and 1.5 meters high. It has an offset plinth and piers where the wall changes direction, topped with rounded stone coping. Near the south-east corner, there is a rectangular safe divided into two panels, which has a money slit in the center above the inscription 'Ringwood Parish 1813'. The panels also feature lion masks and the names of the vicar and churchwardens. This safe was installed as a result of Roses' Act of 1812 and is considered a rare survival.
