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.

...I thought it must've been something like that, what with the Daily Mail being involved... :g64:
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?"
