Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was undertaken on behalf of Mr Linton Connell at Cookhill Priory, Cookhill, Worcestershire (NGR SP 0537 5733; WSM 31687). The watching brief covered an extensive area of groundworks surrounding the manor house. Many layers of material were found, mainly redeposited material dating to the post-medieval periods. These were probably landscaping episodes or periods of deposition occurring during the time the house was a private residence. A number of archaeological features were located during the groundworks, mostly probably pits, though none were positively identified as such. Although one at the south-eastern corner of the house was dated to the 18th century some others just north of the house could have been of an earlier date. A single posthole was dated to the medieval period in the area of the new garage. As this feature was found in isolation there was limited opportunity for interpretation of what form of structure this could have taken. Whatever structure did exist in this area seems to have been re-used, as the post hole was partly truncated by another of post-medieval date. The range and dating of the activity around the manor is reflected in the range of dates reflected in the priory itself, from the medieval through to the modern.
