Everdon Stubbs is a 29.5-hectare (73-acre) biological Site of Special Scientific Interest south-east of Everdon in Northamptonshire.[1][2] It is owned and managed by the Woodland Trust.[3]

This woodland site has areas of acidic free-draining soil, and other damper areas. It is described by Natural England as an important site for fungi, and there is a diverse range of breeding birds. There are locally uncommon plants such as wild daffodil, orpine and bitter vetch.[4]

There is access from Stubbs Road, which goes through the site.
