Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox park Bridge Wood is a 31 hectare Local Nature Reserve on the southern outskirts of Ipswich in Suffolk, England. It is owned and managed by Ipswich Borough Council, and is part of Orwell Country Park.[1][2]

One theory about the name Bridge Wood is that it might refer to an old Roman crossing point known as a "bridge". An artificial band of shale can see at low tide near the present Orwell Bridge and this may have been crossable in the past.[3]

This site has been managed as woodland at least since 1600, and it has several ancient oaks. There are also areas of pine, which are being thinned to create a more mixed woodland.[1]

There is access from the Stour and Orwell Walk, which goes through the wood.
