Hi Rich. Have a look at https://github.com/s7eph4n/SimpleBatchUpload.
It's an extension, not a script, but it was developed with exactly your use case in mind. It provides a Special page for uploading multiple files to MediaWiki and setting a standard template call as the wikitext of the uploaded file's page. That template could then set your properties or a category. (You will need to use the development version to get the full functionality.)
