Just wo dering, what is the biggest area of woodland/forest in the uk?
Kielder Forest ? just a guess as I have not googled it
Galloway forest park apparently 300sq miles against 250 for Kielder
Broad leaf or pine plantation?
Argyll? Its a huge area on the map
IIRC Kielder is the biggest planted commercial forestry.
huh huh, you said wood

Sherwood Forest? I drive past the signs many times but yet to see more than a couple of saplings. It's a con - I bet Robin Hood never existed either.
EDIT: LOL at Organic 😛
The largest forest of native species has only just been planted, Heartwood Forest - 850 acres near St Albans.
The 'Forest Parks' are certainly a much larger area but are really just tree factories and not 'proper' woodland 😉
John Holmes had pretty big wood IIRC
IIRC? surely you mean alledgedly
New Forest is the largest "natural/unsown" forest in the UK.
yet mostly boggy marshland with no trees
and lots of managed plantations 😕
That's what they claim anyway!
I thought Galloway too.
