George Backhouse Witts (1846 – 6 September 1912) was a British civil engineer and archaeologist who specialised in the prehistoric barrows of Gloucestershire. His Archaeological Handbook of the County of Gloucester (1883), the first such survey of the county, remained a standard work until the mid-20th century. He later became a notable figure in the life of Leckhampton in Gloucestershire and as the local magistrate was once required to read the Riot Act on Leckhampton Hill to disperse a crowd of protesters intent on property damage.
