Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	Pre-Construct Archaeology Limited was commissioned by the British Museum to undertake building recording of the Bindery and 1-2 Montague Place at the British Museum, London, centred on NGR 529970 181760. The work was required by the Local Planning Authority in connection with the British Museum North West Development. The proposal is to demolish both the Bindery and 1-2 Montague Place and redevelop the site. The British Museum is a Grade I Listed Building. It is understood that the Bindery has recently been listed Grade II. The buildings lie within the Bloomsbury Conservation Area. No.s 1-2 Montague Place and the Bindery were recorded broadly in accordance with English Heritage's Levels 1 and 3, respectively. The on-site recording was carried out from 16 to 27 March 2009. The Bindery was constructed in 1898 with workshops for staff involved in the conservation and binding of books. The long, narrow two storey building was therefore designed with good natural lighting and ventilation. Smaller rooms at each end were used for specialised activities, administration and welfare facilities. The Bindery building was extended to the north between 1957 and 1968. No.s 1-2 Montague Place was built between 1968 and 1987 with a mock Georgian style façade. The lower three storeys of the building were designed with offices and a variety of rooms and studios for the production and processing of photographic images by the British Museum. The upper two floors each contained a three bedroom flat.
