Round Clump is a small woodland located in the county of Northamptonshire, England. Situated near the town of Woodford, this forested area covers approximately 50 acres of land. The woodland is named after a prominent round-shaped hill that stands at the heart of the clump, giving it its distinctive appearance.

The Round Clump is predominantly composed of deciduous trees, such as oak, ash, and beech, which provide a lush and vibrant canopy during the spring and summer months. The forest floor is covered with a diverse range of flora, including bluebells, primroses, and ferns, creating a picturesque and tranquil environment for visitors to enjoy.

The woodland is home to a variety of wildlife species, including deer, foxes, rabbits, and a wide array of bird species. Nature enthusiasts and birdwatchers frequent the area to observe and appreciate the rich biodiversity that Round Clump offers.

There are several trails and pathways that crisscross through the woodland, providing opportunities for walkers, hikers, and cyclists to explore the area. These paths are well-maintained and offer stunning views of the surrounding countryside. Additionally, there are picnic areas and benches scattered throughout the clump, allowing visitors to relax and soak in the natural beauty of their surroundings.
