Abstract:		 Herefordshire Archaeology were contracted to oversee a programme of consolidation and recording at Bronsil Castle during conservation and repair work undertaken by Nimbus Conservation Limited. Earlier assessment work had been done by Caroe and Partners. This was delivered through a Higher Level Stewardship Scheme, part of the Environmental Stewardship Scheme administered by Natural England Environmental Stewardship Grant. The structures undergoing consolidation included the remains of the west gatehouse, adjacent to the footbridge and a fragment of the staircase tower and the underlying supporting revetment wall that marks the eastern castle boundary. A third section of standing masonry, located in the southeast corner of the site was also recorded but was not subject to consolidation. All three structures were photographed at all stages of the project, before work began, after the removal of vegetation and upon completion of the project. Stone for stone drawings were also made after the removal of vegetation and upon completion of the consolidation work. As part of the consolidation of the stair tower, a supporting wall had to be constructed to protect overhanging masonry. This necessitated the excavation of a shallow trench on the south side of the structure but no archaeological deposits were encountered. Consolidation of the curtain wall was not undertaken at this time as a substantial fallen tree impeded access, but the structure was archaeologically recorded as well as it could be under the circumstances.
