More about this scene
Cannock Chase was originally a royal hunting forest before being sold to the Bishop of Lichfield. By 1560 it was owned by Sir William Paget, who developed an iron smelting industry and deforested much of it for fuel. As we can see here, there has been much replanting during the 20th century, first with conifers and later with mixed woodland.
