ancient Forest of Dean is one of the few remaining Royal forests in England. It
was created by the Normans as a hunting forest to provide food for the king's
winter court at Gloucester. | |  | Ancient woodlands are great places to watch wildlife
especially birds and mammals such as deer and wild boar. | |  | - Get out and about in spring woodlands for birds
of prey, badger watching and wild walks.
