I have been told by a few that is the oddest place in Britain - in breeding rife. If you go in a pub & they don't know you - get turfed out. 90% don't have cars and live like it was the 19th century.

well not exactly but i know the forest and the whole area is basically rather backward, depressed and insular (ok, inbred!). it used to be a coal-mining area until the mid-20th century, since then its been downhill most of the way. Cinderford in particular is very down at heel. the scenery is very pleasant though, in the main. i suppose its the nearest we have in the uk to 'Deliverance' country
