Denbigh Plantation, also known as Mathews Manor, is a historic archaeological site located at Newport News, Virginia.

igh is first recorded in 1635 in a will, but it is very likely the Anglican parish from which it draws its name was established a decade earlier, at the same time as the other parishes in the area.
