NatureScot shares news (30 August 2024) about a quest to unearth the stories and restoration potential of the country’s forgotten woodland sites.
Forgotten Woodlands is a pilot project from NatureScot, Forestry and Land Scotland, and Ainmean-Àite na h-Alba (the national advisory partnership for Gaelic place-names). It has set out to map all Scottish place-names with the potential to reveal their historical woodland coverage.
