Cobham Woods is an area of woodland, a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and part of the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) (grid reference TQ699686), located between Strood, Cuxton and Cobham in Kent.[1]
Since 2005 the area has been cleared of some abandoned cars and the boundaries secured to prevent vehicular access to allow the site to return to its former glory.[2]
The woodland is largely sweet chestnut coppice with some coniferous plantations, while the parkland is mature woodland, with some clearings, of oak, sweet chestnut, beech, hornbeam, and other species.[3]
