Abstract: |
Tree-ring analysis of seven out of eight samples obtained from the three surviving trusses within the White Swan public house, Leek (one sample having too few rings), shows that all the dated timbers were cut as part of a single programme of felling undertaken between 1531-56. From the material analysed a single site chronology was created, LEKDSQ01, this comprising five of the seven analysed samples. This has an overall length of 83 rings, these rings being dated as spanning the years 1436-1518. Two measured samples remain ungrouped and undated. |
