Wain Wood is an ancient woodland extending to 19.2 hectares near Preston in North Hertfordshire. The site is a Site of Special Scientific Interest which was notified in 1986 under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981. The local planning authority is North Hertfordshire District Council. It is a relict of a large forest which extended from Hitchin to Hatfield.
Wain Wood is situated on a north-east facing slope which is over decalcified boulder clay and is an example of a habitat which has a limited and localised distribution in the United Kingdom anymore due to deforestation or afforestation, especially with conifers. The woodland is dominated by pedunculate oak, sessile oak with hornbeam in the north of the site and gean to the south. At the centre of the wood is a disused pit which is surrounded by ash and gean. Much of the south of the area consisting of acidic grassland. Wain Wood is host to a diverse butterfly fauna including purple hairstreak, and the speckled wood.
