Re: Medieval ring discovered in Sherwood Forest
It was on agricultural land on an organised, legitimate club dig.
Not all of the forest is still forest, in fact its "shrunk" massively from the days it was a Royal Hunting Forest & covered about quarter of Nottinghamshire (about 133,500 acres!). The country park now only covers about 450 acres in a wider National Nature Reserve of 1,000 or so acres, some of which is arable.
Rubbish journalism as ever. Sacrifice the facts for a headline.

Re: Medieval ring discovered in Sherwood Forest
...I thought it must've been something like that, what with the Daily Mail being involved...
A beautiful, historic ring and the find of a lifetime

"That is a beautiful ring. Probably high gold content possibly owned/worn/lost by someone from the church?"
