Downs Banks is an area of open countryside, near Stone in Staffordshire, owned and managed by the National Trust.

It covers 166 acres and consists of a glaciated valley with a stream running the length of the property from North to South.

Other habitats include woodland and heathland. The heath has been subject to a restoration project by the National Trust which resulted in the re-introduction of grazing cattle to the property in 2005.

There is open access on foot to all as well as a waymarked bridlepath that may be used by horse riders and cyclists.
