Abstract:		 Archaeological watching brief undertaken during conversion of barn to single residence. In July 2021 KDK Archaeology Ltd undertook a programme of Observation and Recording at Langley Lodge Farm Barn, Kings Langley, Hertfordshire in order to fulfil planning conditions for the development of the site. The project required various areas of excavation under archaeological supervision, both inside and outside the existing barn. Interior ground reduction revealed the presence of brick piers described in the Historic England list entry, which once supported a raised timber threshing floor. In between these was a layer of chalk that may have been all that remained of an earlier threshing floor, although its date could not be ascertained. No other features of archaeological interest were identified, although service trenches and footings pads were subsequently excavated inside the barn. Ground reduction was also carried out at the exterior, as well as the excavation of further service trenches, a patio area, a soakaway and a pit for a fuel tank. These revealed varying areas of topsoil and made ground, suggesting that a great deal of landscaping had occurred in the recent past, which may have truncated any features that previously existed.
