'''Oughton Nature Reserve''' in [[Hitchin]] in [[Hertfordshire]] is managed by the [[Herts and Middlesex Wildlife Trust]]. The 6.2-hectare site on the north bank of the [[River Oughton]] is not publicly accessible, but it can be viewed across the river from [[Oughtonhead Common]].<ref name=Oughton>{{cite web|url=http://www.hertswildlifetrust.org.uk/reserves/oughtonhead|title=Oughtonhead|publisher=Herts and Middlesex Wildlife Trust|access-date=13 August 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150403235357/http://www.hertswildlifetrust.org.uk/reserves/oughtonhead|archive-date=3 April 2015|url-status=dead}}</ref> |

The site has a variety of habitats, including wet and dry woodland, the river margin and fen areas. Willow, reed and rush were formerly grown and harvested in the wetter areas, and there was a corn mill at the eastern end. Birds include kingfishers, water rails and woodcock, and there are mammals such as [[Eurasian water shrew|water shrews]].<ref name=Oughton/><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.hertslink.org/cms/content/15488274/16532620/oughtonhead0410.pdf|title=Oughtonhead Common, Hitchin|publisher=North Hertfordshire District Council|access-date=13 August 2015}}</ref> |
