Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology has been commissioned by English Heritage (‘the client’), to produce a written scheme of investigation (WSI) for a proposed archaeological watching brief during groundworks associated with the excavation of a cable trench for lighting improvements outside Stonehenge Visitor Centre. The works to be monitored cover comprise a cable trench between NGR 410004 142864 and 410023 142739, at Stonehenge Visitor Centre, Winterbourne Stoke, Wiltshire, SP4 7DE.The development comprises a variety of improvements at the visitor centre. This watching brief is specifically concerned with the excavation of a cable trench associated with improving lighting along the footpath providing access from the coach park to the north and car park to the south. The footpath runs north-south and comprises the eastern boundary of the cable trench. The trench will measure approximately 150 m long, 0.23 m wide and c.0.45 m deep.A planning application (19/01906/FUL) for the installation of bollards, seating and replacement gates in the vicinity of the Stonehenge Visitor Centre was submitted to Wiltshire Council and was granted on the 12th June 2019, subject to conditions, although none of the conditions required archaeological work. This watching brief (Phase 3) is part of the Stonehenge Visitor Enhancement Project (SVEP) works associated with the Stonehenge Visitor Centre. The works have included evaluation (SVEP) and two phases of subsequent archaeological watching brief (SVEP Phase 1 and 2) undertaken during the extension of the coach park immediately to the north-west of the visitor centre and wider service improvements (Wessex Archaeology 2015a and b and 2018). Neither the evaluation or watching briefs encountered any archaeological features or deposits.
