Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	Analysis by dendrochronology was undertaken on samples from two window lintels at this site. There was no cross-matching between them and they could not be dated individually. It has therefore not been possible to provide tree-ring dating evidence indicating whether these two lintels relate to the original early fourteenth-century construction of the Tower, or a later phase of modification or repair. Subsequently a series of eight contiguous decadal samples from one of the lintels (WKWA01) was submitted for radiocarbon dating by Accelerator Mass Spectrometry. Analysis of these results by wiggle-matching suggests that this timber was felled in the early-fourteenth century and is a survival from the primary phase of construction.
