Where is Epping Forest?
I was just listening to old 'Genesis' music. A song on 'Selling England by the Pound' from 1974 is called 'The battle of Epping Forest'.

It is south of Epping on the M25 NE of London, It is a large parklans that is about 2 miles wide and probably 10 or miles long.

If you've ever seen Peter Gabriel's video for "Shock the Monkey", the outdoor woodsy scenes were filmed in Epping Forest.

Thank you both.<BR><BR>Trying to decipher the lyrics, it sounds like it was almost turned into a housing tract in the '70s.<BR><BR>I did find a copy of the video to watch. Fairly grainy, but I got the gist.<BR>
