Savernake Forest is a reminant of the vast ancient woodland which once covered much of Britain. It's a former Royal Stag hunting forest. Today it's privately owned but open to the public and managed by the Forestry England. It's home to numerous ancient trees, mostly Oaks between 1,000 & 1,100 years old. Many are individually named, reflecting the appearance and character of these amazing life forms.

Erected in 1781, the Ailesbury Column is a defining feature of Savernake Forest. The column was built by Thomas Bruce Earl to thank his uncle for leaving him his estates. The singular column is made from limestone, with a bronze urn at its top.
