Abstract
Fieldwork at Fyfield Business and Research Park, Fyfield Road, Chipping Ongar produced slight evidence for occupation during the Bronze Age, Late Iron Age/Early Roman and medieval periods. In the late 15th to 16th century, a substantial timber building was constructed within a ditched enclosure. This probably marked the beginning of sustained occupation of the site and the origins of a roadside property known in the 19th century as Boarded Barns Farm. During the post-medieval period, additional farm buildings were constructed and modifications were made to the farm complex and surrounding yards, gardens and fields. Boarded Barns Farm was demolished at the end of the 19th century and its site was partially occupied by new cottages. Other parts of the farm complex were landscaped and returned to cultivation.
