The Dean Forest Act 1861 (24 & 25 Vict. c. 40) is an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. It is a public general Act.[2] It was omitted from the third revised edition of the statutes because of its local and personal nature.[3]

The preamble and sections 2 and 5 and 6 and 17 and 22 and 27 were repealed by section 1 of, and Part VII of the Schedule to, the Statute Law (Repeals) Act 1969. These provisions had been agreed by the Forestry Commission to be obsolete, spent, unnecessary or superseded.[5]
