About
This presentation will look at various ways that the Built, Archaeological and Landscape Heritage of Clonfert has been explored and recorded over the years. This will include techniques from simple sketches from memory of the grounds and gardens to dedicated geophysical survey of the broader landscape, to a measured drawn survey of Clonfert Romanesque Doorway. It will look at how digital modelling can enhance our understanding of a place. It will also raise the question for open debate as to how we should use that digital technology to plan for the long term conservation of the Romanesque Doorway.
