He might mean old-growth forest.

Ancient forests are a designation in the UK - https://www.woodlandtrust.org.uk/trees-woods-and-wildlife/habitats/ancient-woodland/

The Woodland Trust have staff that mind them. I'm not sure what this guys job title was but probably a conservation officer or similar? He was helping us with something about the oldest trees in the UK.

Also, not a he.
