The film follows the exploits of Robin Hood and his Merry Men. It was written by Allan MacKinnon and the score was by Doreen Carwithen.

Hammer followed it up with two other Robin Hood films later on. Filming began in May 1954, the film was trade shown on Oct. 27, 1954, and released in UK on Dec. 6, 1954.
