Dunfermline Heritage Community Projects.Welcome to the website for Dunfermline Heritage Community Projects or DHCP as it is popularly known.
DHCP DHCP grew out of the 2005 -2007 Dunfermline Burgh Survey, which was organised as a Community Project comprising a group of volunteers who worked for over two years on research, for the 3rd Dunfermline Burgh Survey. Burgh Survey Burgh Surveys are intended to furnish local authorities, developers and residents with reliable information to help protect and manage the archaeology and historic enviroment of Scotlands urban centres. A full description and the history of Burgh Surveys can be found in the final report of the 3rd Dunfermline Burgh Survey published as: Historic Dunfermline by E. Patricia Dennison and Simon Stronach. Some of the volunteers from the above Community project wanted to continue to work together to further research and promote Dunfermline's history and heritage. They do so under a number of seperate project teams that are managed and guided by an umbrella organisation known as Dunfermline Heritage Community Projects (DHCP).
