Bramley Bank, Nature reserve in Upper Shirley, London Borough of Croydon, United Kingdom.
The 10.3-hectare woodland includes oak, ash, and sycamore trees, along with a pond bordered by yellow flag and flote grass.
During the mid-nineteenth century, the area formed a narrow strip of wood extending from Ballards Plantation toward Littleheath Wood.
London Wildlife Trust manages this natural space, offering residents opportunities to connect with local ecosystems through observation and education.
Visitors can enter the reserve through multiple access points at Ballards Way, Broadcoombe, and Riesco Drive in Upper Shirley.
The reserve supports populations of nuthatches, song thrushes, purple hairstreak butterflies, yellow meadow ants, and pipistrelle bats.
