Roundshaw Downs

Roundshaw Down is a large area of gently sloping chalk downland with belts of wood and long walks, which have been cut under conservation guidelines. The open land extends to the east into Croydon, and was once part of the Croydon Airport site.

Wildlife and Habitats

Although there are a number of mown paths enabling easy access around the site for people, there are large swathes of un-spoilt grassland. These areas provide a home for various rare insect species and birds.
