Sorry if this has been posted before -only just noticed this is the news the other day:

Looks like there's some pretty big opposition in the Forest of Dean. The government have stated that any sell off wouldn't effect any existing rights of way, but there aren't that many rights of way in the Forest of Dean, most are permissive paths with access granted by the forestry commission. Could this have any impact on access to the caves/mines in the FOD?
