Ten Wood is a 17.7-hectare (44-acre) biological Site of Special Scientific Interest east of Burrough Green in Cambridgeshire.[1][2]

This ancient wood is of the ash/maple type, which has a high conservation value as it has a restricted and declining distribution. Other trees include hazel and pedunculate oak. There is also a population of the rare oxlip.[3]

The site is private land with no public access.
