Rear Suspension Creaking Noise

I have an 06 Cooper s R53 with 112k. We have replaced the rear shocks which has helped alot but i have this creaking noise more on passenger rear the drivers side. I hear this around corners and driving on uneven rougher roads. Was looking at replacing the rear shock mounts which are original.

Is there anything else that I should look at?

In what shape are the rear anti-roll bushings? They could be worn out if they're the original rubber ones. I have polyurethane bushings on mine and they squeak like made when I take the car out of storage in the spring. Usually end up greasing them and the creaking stops.
