Burley Old

 
All the forest's woodlands have unique qualities, although I'd suggest none so magical as Burley Old. One of the first enclosures in the forest created in 1700, many of those original trees still hold tenure within it's banks. It's a magical world of veteran/ancient trees peppered with numerous man made curios; I've often mused creating a map of the wood along the style of E.H. Shepard's '100 Acre Wood'. Lovely place.
