Cockaynes Wood is a 20.2-hectare (50-acre) nature reserve between Wivenhoe and Alresford in Essex, United Kingdom. It is managed by the Essex Wildlife Trust and the Cockaynes Wood Trust.[1][2]
Cockaynes Wood is ancient, and was listed in the Domesday Book. The nature reserve also includes Villa Wood and more open areas, with heathland, meadows, and water-filled former quarries. Wildlife includes a rare weevil and birds including barn owls.[1]
A footpath from Ballast Quay in Wivenhoe to Cockaynes Lane in Alresford goes through the site. The areas around the water-filled quarries are closed to the public.
