Savernake Forest stands on a Cretaceous chalk plateau directly next to Marlborough in Wiltshire, England, You can see Marlborough in this video. Its area is approximately 4,500 acres (18 km²;
7 miles²).
*Cretaceous is a geologic period and system that spans 79 million years from the end of the Jurassic Period 145 million years ago to the beginning of the Paleogene Period 66 million years ago, and is the last period of the Mesozoic Era.
Most of the forest lies within the civil parish of Savernake. It is privately owned by the Marquess of Ailesbury and his family, and is administered by trustees. Since 1939 the timber of the forest has been managed by the Forestry Commission on a 999-year lease. The private status of Savernake, Britain's only privately owned forest, is maintained by shutting off the forest to the public one day per year.
Geographically, Savernake's landform is rolling downland, dissected by both dry and wet valleys. The valleys within the forest, of which there are four, are all dry, and the presence of Cretaceous deposits of Clay-with-Flints creates the damp, heavy soils suited to dense cover of oak and beech.
Savernake has 6 historic oak trees called, Big Bellied Oak; New Queen Oak; Queen Oak. Saddle Oak 1; Saddle Oak 2; Spider Oak. Picture of these trees are shown here;

Briefly in this video you can see the town of Marlborough. Marlborough is a market town and civil parish in the English county of Wiltshire on the Old Bath Road, the old main road from London to Bath. It boasts the second widest high street in Britain, after Stockton-on-Tees. The town is on the River Kennet.
The town is at the heart of the Church of England Marlborough deanery in the diocese of Salisbury in the province of Canterbury. The rural dean has responsibility for the benefices of Marlborough, Ridgeway, Upper Kennet and Whitton which in total comprise 16 parishes. Of the town's two Church of England parish churches, St Peter's has been made redundant and converted into an arts centre. St Mary's remains in use for worship.
