The Heart of England Forest.

This is the legacy of Felix Dennis, publisher, poet and general gadabout. When he died he left much of his £500m fortune to the development of a forest in between the Vale of Evesham and the Forest of Arden. It's an immense 3,000 acre sight into which about a million native broadleaf trees have been planted. The place is still very much in its infancy but is nevertheless a really worthwhile place to visit. The picture is of FD's last resting place, in the heart of the forest, next to his mum.
