NT 54457 67131 A resistance survey was undertaken on 17 March 2015, around Yester Chapel as part of a wider evaluation of the site. The aim of the survey was to define the footings of the original chancel and nave of the church. The survey identified some responses of potential significance, though it did not identify a clear footprint of the church. A series of weak linear trends and discrete anomalies to the W of the chapel do hint at the potential remnants of structural remains. However, interpretation is extremely cautious. The results are thought to be have been influenced by the lack of contrast between potential features and the surrounding glacial till. The likelihood of extensive robbing of potential foundations was considered a further complication.
