Yockletts Bank is a 25.4-hectare (63-acre) biological Site of Special Scientific Interest west of Stelling Minnis in Kent.[1][2] It is managed by KWT[3] and is part of Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.[3]
This sloping site has woodland on dry chalk soils. There are diverse woodland breeding birds, and the ground flora is dominated by bluebells, but there are also many orchids.[4]
There is access from the road called Gogway, which runs through the site.
