Edwardstone Woods is a 27 hectare biological Site of Special Scientific Interest near Edwardstone in Suffolk. It is in four areas, Park Wood with the adjacent High Wood, Cowper's Wood, Stallington Wood and Priory Down.[1][2]

These are ancient coppice with standards woods, which are mainly ash, maple and hazel, but there are large stands of hornbeam and small-leaved lime in some areas. The diverse ground flora is typical of Suffolk boulder clay soils.[3]

The woods are private with no public access.
