Abstract:		 A watching brief was conducted at Fort Warden Holiday Camp, Totland Bay, Isle of Wight during the demolition of the holiday camp structures in advance of its redevelopment for residential units. The work was commissioned by CgMs Consulting on behalf of Roseberry Homes. It comprised the monitoring of the demolition in order to preserve and record structures and features of Warden Point Battery, a coastal fort that was part of the Needles Defences. The drilling of four geotechnical boreholes and the excavation of a footing trench for one of the new buildings were monitored. Substantial elements of Warden Point Battery were exposed and recorded, including parts of the original 19th century battery. Evidence was seen for the subsequent military alterations to the fort as it was used into the 20th century. The remains found on site correspond to an array of historical documents that illustrate its history. Furthermore they can be compared to contemporary forts on the west coast of the Isle of Wight that served the same purpose.
