Abstract: |
During the 1985-86 excavation at Barking Abbey industrial estate a total of 113 waterlogged timbers were exposed and partially recorded by the Passmore Edwards Museum excavation team. The structural timbers derived from three wells and a multi-phase mill leat channel and were tree-ring dated to the middle-Saxon period. In 2002 emergency recording of the remaining material was commissioned by English Heritage ahead of the planned demolition of the Passmore Edwards Museum stores. The timbers were subsequently referred to the English Heritage archaeological conservation facilities. This report aims to provide basic information on the origins of the conserved material; its place as a sub-sample of a larger assemblage; and its character and wider inferences that can be drawn from it. This report also outlines the history of the assemblage recording and sampling methodologies as well as the conservation methodology and results. |
