Earth Resistance Survey (8 September 2011 - 10 September 2011)
NH 54936 58988 A geophysical survey was undertaken, 8–10 September 2011, in St Clement’s Parish Church graveyard, as part of a research and community project investigating the archaeology of Dingwall’s Viking assembly site or ‘thing’. An electrical resistance survey was undertaken over the N side of the graveyard in the area surrounding St Clements’s Aisle. The survey aimed to locate the remains of Dingwall Old Parish Church, which was demolished at the end of the 18th century, leaving only the N aisle. The sample density was 1 x 0.5m with probe separation of 0.5m. Three linear high resistance anomalies aligned N–S were recorded to the S of the aisle. These were interpreted as truncated foundations of the W and E walls of the old church nave and the site of a rectangular chancel. A low earthwork SE of the aisle correlates with the geophysical results.
