copse

n. grove; coppice, thicket of bushes or small trees

A copse is an English term for a small lowland woodland. It is often used as a part of a place name, for example Borthwood Copse on the Isle of Wight, or Moor Copse near Tidmarsh. The term is derived from the similar and linked word coppice. Most woodlands which have copse as a part of their name were probably coppiced once, but this does not mean that the practice continues today, as it was once a lot more popular than it is now. As coppicing was mostly practiced in lowland England, this is the area where use of the word is most common.
