Cornard Wood, near Sudbury, Suffolk is a 1748 landscape painting by Thomas Gainsborough, now in the National Gallery, London, which bought it in 1875. The title has been used since 1828 and derives from a 1790 print of a Gainsborough work, though it is unproven whether the church tower in the background can be identified with that at Great Cornard, Suffolk.[1]
