Abstract:		 A watching brief was carried out during the lifting of slumped floor slabs within Dunfermline Abbey Church. Two trenches were excavated to discover the cause of subsidence. One trench revealed a layer of sand over concrete. The other showed limited amounts of fine sand immediately below the paving, suggesting the lifting and replacement of some slabs. Below this, fine silt had a prominent area of collapse within it. This seems likely to reflect a burial below, as it is orientated E/W and is a suitable length (1.95m) for a grave, if perhaps somewhat wide (1.35m). The bone noted within this area is likely to be human, but perhaps belongs to earlier burials disturbed by the collapsing one.
