The Spinney Local Nature Reserve, Nature reserve in Carshalton, London Borough of Sutton, England.
The Spinney spans 0.4 hectares in an L-shaped configuration, featuring a combination of woodland areas with plane trees, elm trees, and dense scrub vegetation.
The nature reserve emerged from a shrub and hedgerow boundary along a meadow that remained until 1935, before the construction of the current housing estate.
Local residents and Sutton Nature Conservation Volunteers work together with the Sutton Council to maintain and protect this natural space within the urban environment.
The entrance to the reserve is situated on Nightingale Road, with access regulated through a locked gate to protect the natural environment.
The reserve contains butcher's broom, an evergreen shrub with spiny cladodes that butchers once used to clean their cutting boards.
