Ground Penetrating Radar (2016 - 2020)
Dumfermline Abbey Project, 2016-2019. Ground-Penetrating Radar [GPR] pilot survey of the lost choir site. Pilot stage GPR scans of 2016, 2017 and 2019 can be said, cautiously, to have been successful thanks to the application of a tailored method of scanning for buried and overbuilt medieval ecclesiastical remains. The report (and its three accompanying technical field reports by GPR expert Erica Utsi) will summarise those scans’ key findings.
