Brenchley Wood is a 15-hectare (37-acre) nature reserve south of Paddock Wood in Kent. It is managed by the Kent Wildlife Trust, and it is part of the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.[1]

This ancient wood is dominated by mature beech and oak trees, with birds such as nightingales and tawny owls. A former pine plantation in the north of the site is now being restored to heathland.[1]

There is access at the junction of Romford Road and Foxhole Lane.
