'''Raveley Wood''' is a {{convert|5.6|hectare|acre|adj=on}} nature reserve south-west of [[Upwood]] in [[Cambridgeshire]]. It is managed by the [[Wildlife Trust for Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Northamptonshire]].<ref name=WTBCN>{{cite web|url=http://www.wildlifebcn.org/reserves/raveley-wood |title= Raveley Wood |publisher= Wildlife Trust for Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Northamptonshire |accessdate= 21 November 2016}}</ref>

Trees in this wood include oak, ash and [[field maple]], together with some elms, although many were killed by [[Dutch elm disease]]. Invertebrates include the rare [[Cosmia diffinis|white-spotted pinion moth]], which depends on elms for food for its larvae, and [[white-letter hairstreak]] butterflies. The dead elms provide a habitat for a wide variety of fungi.<ref name=WTBCN/>

There is access from Raveley Road, which runs west from the hamlet of [[Great Raveley]].
