## Summary

Shropshire Council recently concluded a procurement process for the repair of the Lord Hill Column in Shrewsbury, with an award made on 30th June 2025. The project, titled "RONB 165 - Heritage Specialist for the Repair of Lord Hill Column, Shrewsbury," involves extensive maintenance and restoration work. The tasks include using natural Roman cement for repairs and erecting scaffolding to complete the work, scheduled from 21st July 2025 to 20th August 2026. This procurement, falling under the category of repair and maintenance services, followed an open competition method below the threshold, generating interest from seven bids, all from SMEs. The awarding of this project aims to address previous inadequate repairs made with lime mortar.

This procurement offers significant business growth opportunities, particularly for SMEs specialising in heritage restoration and repair services. Phillips and Curry Limited, as the successful supplier, demonstrates the potential for small to medium-sized enterprises to secure valuable public contracts by showcasing expertise in specific niche renovations.

## Notice

This is an award notice for the extensive maintenance and restoration of the Lord Hill Statue upon The Column in Abbey Foregate, Shrewsbury. The statue is constructed of Coade stone and has received many significant repairs over the last 60 years. Previous repairs undertaken using lime mortar have continually failed and as a result, the repairs specified within this schedule of works will be undertaken in natural Roman cement. In addition to the crack and surface repairs to be undertaken in situ, it will also be necessary to remove the left arm and right hand of the statue to make casts in natural Roman cement and reinstate on the statue. The statue is to be repainted upon completion of the repair works. The successful contractor will be responsible for the supply and erection of a fully independent scaffolding system to safely allow all the works to take place.
