Forest Banks is a Site of Special Scientific Interest in Staffordshire, England. It is located 3km southwest of Marchington. This protected area comprises three patches of woodland that are within a section of the former Royal Forest of Needwood. This area is protected because the steep slopes of the local topography allows a woodland assemblage that is otherwise uncommon in Staffordshire, and also for the diversity of moths and butterflies. Forest Banks SSSI is cited within the Bagots Forest Plan (Bagot's Wood) written by the Forestry Commission.
