The Dales Open Space is a 5.9 hectare Local Nature Reserve in Ipswich in Suffolk.

It is owned and managed by Ipswich Borough Council.

[1][2] Most of this former quarry is secondary woodland, but there are also areas of scrub, two spring-fed ponds and seasonal pools.

In the north the site is a flat valley bottom, and it slopes up steeply in the south.

[1] There is access from Dales Road and Baronsdale Close.
