Hatch Park is a 71.8-hectare (177-acre) biological Site of Special Scientific Interest east of Ashford in Kent.[1][2] It is listed by Historic England on the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens of Special Historic Interest in England.[3]

This site has species-rich acidic grassland which is the remnant of a larger deer park, and is still managed by a herd of deer. There are also ancient pollard woods which are the richest for epiphytic lichens in the county. Several ponds have adjacent areas of marsh.[4]

The site is private land which is not open to the public.
