Abstract:		 Oxford Archaeology carried out archaeological and historical analysis of the dam and bridge in the Wilderness Garden at Witley Court Worcestershire. The dam is associated with the creation of the lake in the 18th century and was later incorporated into the Wilderness Garden. In 2003 the dam was raised by c1m to conform with new regulations and as part of this work an historic bridge was rebuilt and a spillway created. The overflow of the dam is crossed by a small ornamental bridge which was demolished and rebuilt during the restoration. The main focus of the work was recording the bridge and tagging the individual elements prior to dismantling and re-assembly. A small-scale excavation was also undertaken on the centre 'bastion' of the dam to establish the nature of deposits.
