Knettishall Heath, Nature reserve in Suffolk, England
The 176-hectare reserve contains a diverse mix of heathland, woodland, and riverside meadows with acidic soils supporting varied plant communities.
Archaeological findings at Hut Hill include an 18th-century rabbit warren and a Bronze Age burial mound, indicating human presence over several millennia.
Four long-distance walking paths intersect at Knettishall Heath: Angles Way, Icknield Way, Iceni Way, and Peddars Way, connecting regional heritage routes.
The main parking area on Heath Road charges £2.50 per day, with free parking available between 5 AM and 10 AM.
Nineteen wild Exmoor ponies maintain the lowland heath through natural grazing, supporting rare species including the barbastelle bat and grey carpet moth.
