Robin Hood
Sherwood Forest
Nottinghamshire's most famous patch of woodland would have been a perfect place for Robin Hood to hide during the twelfth century. Thick with trees and packed to the rafters with animals ripe for slaughter, Robin could have eaten like a king even if he wasn't living like one. Deer, Robin's traditional snack of choice, roamed the forests as if they owned the place, safe in the knowledge that they could only be shot at by the King or anyone to whom he had given his express permission.Tavern Trivia: Under the "Forest Law" laid down in 1198, the penalty for killing deer was the removal of the offender's eyes and testicles – a punishment no doubt designed to put people off deer-slaughter in the first place, whilst preventing those who were caught from ever re-offending.
