Abstract:		 The excavation revealed a multi-period archaeological landscape with the most extensive activity dating to the late Bronze Age and Romano-British periods. Further, but quite limited, evidence of Neolithic, medieval, post-medieval and modern activity was recorded. No Bronze Age activity has previously been recorded in the immediate vicinity of the site and, similarly, very little material associated with human activity during the Roman period has been recorded locally, despite the purported route of a Roman road running nearby. One hundred and six features can be attributed to the late Bronze Age; all of these features were concentrated on a small area in the western part of the site. They consisted of two ditches, representing boundaries or enclosures and a large number of pits and postholes, including at least one concentration which may represent a structure. The late Bronze Age archaeology recorded at Denham Park Farm appears to represent activity adjacent to, or on the periphery of, a settlement. The topographical position of the western part of the site may have afforded any settlement located here, or in the immediate vicinity, commanding views of the surrounding landscape and particularly the valley of the river Colne. The Roman archaeology consisted of a set of boundary ditches representing a field system or set of enclosures and associated pits located in the western part of the site. Further Roman features were sparsely distributed across the eastern part of the site. To the north of the Roman enclosures was a focus of industrial activity associated with iron smelting. This has been tentatively dated as Roman due to its proximity to the concentration Roman activity; dateable ceramic evidence from these features, however, is of late Bronze Age date which clearly must be residual
