Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	Analysis by dendrochronology of 16 of the 20 samples from timbers in The Old Coach House has produced four site chronologies comprising six, four, two, and two samples each, of 88, 129, 101, and 107 rings respectively. The first three of these site chronologies can be dated, their rings spanning AD 1504-1591, AD 1569-1697, and AD 1720-1820, respectively. Interpretation of the sapwood and the heartwood/sapwood boundary on the dated samples indicates that timbers representing several different felling dates are to be found here. Six timbers from the roof have an estimated felling date in the period AD 1592-1614. At least three timbers from the gallery floor frame have an estimated felling date in the range AD 1703-28, with a fourth joist also possibly felled at this time. A further floor joist from the gallery is unlikely to have been felled before AD 1827, and may be coeval with a stud from the west wall which has an estimated felling date in the range AD 1833-58. The adjacent Dovecote was also assessed for potential tree-ring analysis but was deemed unsuitable for dating and no samples were taken.
