Round Copse is a charming woodland area located in Middlesex, England. Situated in the southeastern part of the county, it covers an area of approximately 20 acres. This woodland is a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) due to its ecological importance and rich biodiversity.

The copse features a diverse range of tree species, including oak, beech, and ash, which create a dense canopy overhead, providing shelter and habitat for various wildlife species. The forest floor is covered in a thick carpet of leaf litter, supporting a myriad of plant life, such as bluebells, ferns, and wild garlic.

The wood is crisscrossed by several well-maintained footpaths, allowing visitors to explore and appreciate its natural beauty. These paths lead to picturesque spots, including a tranquil pond, where visitors can enjoy the serene surroundings and observe the local wildlife, such as frogs, newts, and a variety of bird species.

Round Copse is not only a haven for nature enthusiasts but also a popular destination for recreational activities such as walking, jogging, and birdwatching. The peaceful ambiance and the abundance of wildlife sightings make it an ideal spot for those seeking a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of urban life.

Managed by the local council, Round Copse is regularly maintained to preserve its ecological integrity and ensure the safety and enjoyment of its visitors. It serves as an important green space, contributing to the overall well-being of the community and providing a valuable habitat for many species of plants and animals.
