Ringwood is a market town in south-west Hampshire, England, located on the River Avon, close to the New Forest, northeast of Bournemouth and southwest of Southampton. It was founded by the Anglo-Saxons, and has held a weekly market since the Middle Ages. History Ringwood is recorded in a charter of 961, in which King Edgar gave 22 hides of land in ''Rimecuda'' to Abingdon Abbey. The name is also recorded in the 10th century as ''Runcwuda'' and ''Rimucwuda''. The second element ''Wuda'' means a 'wood'; ''Rimuc'' may be derived from ''Rima'' meaning 'border, hence "border wood." The name may refer to Ringwood's position on the fringe of the New Forest, or on the border of Hampshire.

In the ''Domesday Book'' of 1086, Ringwood (''Rincvede'') had been appropriated by the Crown and all but six hides taken into the New ...
