Resistivity (14 July 2019)

NT 34339 97152 On Sunday 14th July 2019, members of the Edinburgh Archaeological Field Society (EAFS) carried out resistivity survey of an 80m x 40m area along the south eastern edge of Wemyss and Macduff cemetery. Two tentative anomalies were detected. In the westernmost grid of the survey area was a circular area of very low resistance, approximately 4m in diameter. Extending across the two south easternmost grids, adjacent to Macduff’s Castle was a curvilinear feature of higher resistance which appears to cut across the more amorphous area of very low resistance.
