Abstract: |
This house presents a Georgian facade to the outside world, but is built around an earlier core. Records suggest that it was built for a barber-surgeon, Joseph Fenton c AD 1620. There are remnants of the original roof and floor in one part of the house. It had been suggested that the layout of the house could suggest an even earlier origin and dendrochronological study was employed to date the few remaining timbers. One timber was felled in summer AD 1622, and a second had twenty sapwood rings with the outermost ring being formed in AD 1613, suggesting that they were contemporaneous. A third timber was dated but had no sapwood, only allowing a date after which it must have been felled (AD 1594). It appears therefore that the earliest surviving parts of this structure were indeed built in the early AD 1620's. |
