Best thing to do is first find the nearest woodland, then see if you can locate and speak to the owner of said woodland - round here its usually local farmers - and ask them if they wouldn't mind you using it.
Be respectful of the owner, the land and leave no trace of your being there.

i used to live in chobham

chobham common might be worth a look - mostly heath but some scattered woodland and quite a bit of birch around

not sure of the legalities - foraging and a bit of woodcarving is prob fine but fires are probably not officially allowed.
