The ancient Forest of Dean – historically an industrial area which was founded in Roman times for iron-ore mining, sometimes being described as the “Sheffield of the South”. This however resulted in the large-scale decimation of the ancient forest, only to be replanted in the 1700s for planned future ship-building.
As former royal hunting grounds (still officially The Royal Forest of Dean), the  area was extensively mined for coal in the 18th & early 19th centuries with industry in decline in the 20th century. It is in the Wye Valley AONB.

Nestled betwixt the Severn & The Wye, neither Welsh nor quite English.
 “An understated area of outstanding natural beauty, largely undiscovered by the masses – The Forest remains a playground whether your interest is industrial heritage, wildlife or outdoor pursuits – its got something for everyone.”
