Did they cut down all the trees? I know a town, whose name translated to English is Timber. I found out about the town just before the old lumber mill burned down. There are very few trees there. :-(

There’s not been trees here for 500+ years. The Forest of Bowland is mostly peat bog and heather moorland interspersed with gritstone formations.

Where I live used to be ponderosas and grassland, till about 400 years ago. I just wondered about the name.

The “forest” with regards to this place is actually the older meaning of the word, a “royal hunting ground”.
