The Gardens, Great Ashfield is a 3.8-hectare (9.4-acre) biological Site of Special Scientific Interest north of Great Ashfield in Suffolk.[1][2]

These ancient meadows are traditionally managed by grazing and cutting for hay. They have a rich variety of flora, such as green-winged orchid, bee orchid, common twayblade, pepper saxifrage, adder's tongue fern and ox-eye daisy.[3]

The site is private land with no public access.
