Robins Wood is a 47.7-hectare (118-acre) biological Site of Special Scientific Interest between Tunbridge Wells and Ashford in Kent. [1] [2]
This is a deep valley along a stream in the Weald, and has the humid conditions typical of such areas. It has a diverse flora of mosses, ferns and liverworts, and woodland which is thought to date back to recolonisation after the last ice age ended 11,700 years ago. [3]
Footpaths go through some parts of the site.
