Meet Ian From The Record Vault At Redlands

Explore this family-run record shop! Opening at Redlands Yard on Saturday, 23rd November (10% off sales on opening day!).

Ian & Emma, who live in Drimpton, began their journey as an online store, sharing their passion for music. After ten years, they then decided to branch out into the physical world, creating a space where music lovers can come together. They take great pride in curating a diverse selection of records and fostering a welcoming atmosphere for everyone who walks through the doors.
However, the journey really began when Ian worked in a local record shop in Hampshire when he was 14 years young, which is where the, some would say, obsession began! Emma too, loves all types of music and is enthusiastic about the benefits of listening to, and owning vinyl.
Ian said “After buying a house in Drimpton in 2018, and finally having the opportunity to move in permanently in 2023, we have been eyeing a location to start our dream business and Redlands Yard seemed the perfect choice.
As well as enjoying the local community in the Yard, we are looking to start a music club, think book club for records where we will suggest an album to listen to each month and come together socially to discuss our thoughts and ideas, likes and dislikes, and anything else we have found interesting about the LP.” If you are interested, please contact Ian.

As one would expect, Ian and Emma buy vinyls too: 7″ and 12″ singles and LPs offering good prices.  All genres are welcome:

  • Rock
  • Reggae/Ska
  • Punk
  • Prog
  • Pop
  • Disco/Funk
  • Soul
  • Blues

They also provides a service to help retrieve vinyls from storage (lofts, garages, sheds etc.) as well as also making unique gifts for your loved ones (or a treat for yourself!) including a box of genuine, original vinyl from the year of your birth, a framed original of the No.1 when you were born, a meaning full song or album, or your first dance! They can help complete want-lists, convert records for jukeboxes (it’s called ‘dinking’ in case you were interested!).
They look forward to welcoming you into The Record Vault for a browse, to add to your collection, or simply to have a chat about anything music or vinyl related.

Please Visit Wooly Wonders At Redlands Yard

Kirsty has had her Wooly Wonders unit at Redlands Yard since last June but is already threatened with closure due to lack of customers.
Redlands Yard showed their support by posting this message:

“Our wonderful yarn shop here at Redlands Yard is proving popular on social media and with knitting stalwarts, but the current level of custom is not high enough to sustain Wooly Wonders as a business. We love having Kirsty here, with her fantastic knowledge and extensively stocked shop full of yarns and accessories, and we are keen to support niche businesses and interests such as this. However, if custom does not pick up, the shop will have to close. If you would like to see it stay open, please come along and support this excellent enterprise. Thank you.”

Kirsty also posted on social media:

“If you can support us, please do. We love our new home and would be sad to have to leave. A huge thank you to Redlands Yard for all your help and support.
Team Wooly“
You can contact Kirsty by email: woolywondersyeovil@gmail.com
or call: 07369 249258

Please show your support & visit Wooly Wonders.
