Frieth Meadows is a 2.5-hectare (6.2-acre) Site of Special Scientific Interest in Frieth in Buckinghamshire.[1][2] It is in the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.[3]
The site consists of traditionally managed and unimproved meadows on neutral to acid soils. Plants include quaking grass, green-winged orchid, lousewort and devil's bit scabious. Hedgerows provide shelter for small mammals and birds, and both the grassland and hedges have a wide range of invertebrates.[1]
There is no public access to the site but it can be viewed from Shogmoor Lane.
