Woods Mill is a 19-hectare (47-acre) nature reserve south of Henfield in West Sussex. It is managed by the Sussex Wildlife Trust.[1]

This is the headquarters of the trust and an environmental education centre.[1] The main feature of the nature reserve is a lake, which has many damselflies and dragonflies, such as the scarce chaser and downy emerald. There is also a large area of ancient woodland, with oak, silver birch and coppiced hazel.[2]

The Reserve celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2018 with the support of Scottish Power. [1]
