Abstract: |
Twenty-five samples were obtained from a number of elements of the Chapel and tower house at Dilston Castle. Analysis of these produced a single site chronology comprising twenty-one samples with a combined overall length of 210 rings. This site chronology was dated as spanning the years AD 1402 to AD 1611. Interpretation of the sapwood indicates that probably all the dated timbers represented were felled in AD 1611 and relate to documented remodelling in AD 1616. There is no confirmed tree-ring evidence for any earlier or later material. |
