Later versions of the story place them in Nottinghamshire, in Sherwood Forest. But the earliest sources, which I follow in my novel The Robin Hood Chronicles, place them in Yorkshire, on Barnsdale Heath. Since Robin goes to Nottingham, 50 miles away, fairly often, I assume that he grew up there. The real Robyn Hod, who was a servant of Edward II (all this is explained in the Afterword of my novel), lived in Wakefield, which is in Yorkshire.
