Abstract: |
Two phases of the roof were dated, allowing better interpretation of the extant fabric. The earliest phase dated was shown to include the two central tie beams and the hammerbeam brackets, made from timbers probably all felled in AD 1615-16, about a year before the death of Sir Thomas Chicheley, after whom the chapel is named. Subsequent work on the church necessitated the replacement of the hammerbeam brackets on the southern end of the two central tie beams, the replacement supports being made from trees felled in the period AD 1738-1769, making them almost certainly part of the work undertaken by Flitcroft in AD 1748. |
