Abstract:		 This report has been commissioned to support a planning application for a residential property scheme within the courtyard area to the rear of The Habit, 30 - 32 East Castle Street. Two walls help to enclose this area from the north and east, and their exterior facades form part of the existing street scene within a conservation area. The interior is over 2.5m higher than the street level, and the brick and sandstone walls clearly represent a complex process of repair and rebuild over several generations. The survey has been undertaken to plot these various historic phases, and subsequent analysis has been used to assist in achieving an enhanced understanding of the heritage significance of these walls, and to identify the threats and opportunities that the proposed scheme brings to them. In February 2014, a programme of archaeological evaluation was carried out on land associated with 'The Habit', in Bridgnorth, Shropshire. The programme consisted of a single 'L'-shaped evaluation trench located (centred) at NGR SO 717 930. The evaluation located the remains of a structure visible on the 1835 Leigh and Smith map of Bridgnorth, which appeared to have been altered with the insertion of a cellar, as well as a later, clay-lined, structure, which abutted the earlier cellarage. This feature may be represented on the 1884 OS map, where a square shaped structure is depicted to the west of a building fronting onto Castle Terrace. The remains of the Castle Terrace structure were heavily truncated by later activity, although their location appeared to roughly mirror that of the current patio area. It has been prepared by SLR Consulting for the G.C. Rickards Ltd (the Client).
