Abstract: |
It is believed that the re-roofing of St Nicholas's Church was funded by a series of bequests made specifically for such work between AD 1479-1535. Analysis of samples obtained from the roof of the north aisle during recent (AD 2006) repair works, however, indicates it is likely that all the timbers sampled were cut as part of a single felling, which is likely to have taken place between AD 1533-58. It is possible, therefore, that whilst the money for the re-roofing was given as late as AD 1535, the work was not necessarily carried out immediately but possibly more than 20 years later. |
