Aldenham is a semi-rural village and civil parish in the borough of Hertsmere, county of Hertfordshire in England, lying on the north‑western edge of the London commuter belt. The landscape is notable for Aldenham Reservoir and the adjacent Aldenham Country Park, which provide lakeside walks, watersports and fishing, while the village sits close to the film‑making cluster around Elstree.
Historically an agricultural parish with a medieval core and a handsome parish church, the area also hosts the long‑established independent Aldenham School. Today the local economy is shaped by commuters, leisure and light industry linked to nearby Elstree Studios, and the community retains a village feel with local events, listed buildings and an active parish life centred on places such as St John the Baptist Church.
