Abstract:		 Witley Court is a ruined multi-period manor house with extensive landscaped gardens in the stewardship of English Heritage. The site is located in grounds set back off the A4133 near the village of Great Witley, Worcestershire, and is a Scheduled Ancient Monument (WCM 152). To satisfy requirements of the Inspector of for Ancient Monuments for Witley Court, English Heritage commissioned Archaeological Investigations Ltd to conduct a watching brief during the excavation of three cable runs for installation of closed circuit television (CCTV). The work was carried out during April 2008 and recorded roads, tracks and paths as well as multiple layers of made ground and buried soil horizons that relate to the remodelling of the landscape in the late 18th and early 19th centuries by John Nash and John Nesfield . Older occupation at the site was represented by finds; an architectural stone was recovered that may relate to an earlier phase of the house and a small flint, possibly a fragment from a Mesolithic microlith that was recovered on-top of undisturbed natural gravel. No significant archaeological structures or features were recorded and the limited nature of the excavations meant that damage to archaeological deposits was minimal
