HC Deb 06 March 1981 vol 1000 c209W
Mr. Nicholas Winterton

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what has been the percentage loss of woodland in each county of the United Kingdom since 1945.

Mr. Wiggin

I regret this information is not available. However, the net woodland area in the United Kingdom has increased from about 6 per cent. of the total land area in 1947 to about 9 per cent. today.
