Abstract:
Analysis by dendrochronology of 24 oak samples and three pine samples obtained from these buildings has resulted in the production of two dated oak site chronologies and one undated pine site chronology. The first oak site chronology, BIDASQ01, comprising 14 samples from 1-3 and 5 Bridge Street is 223 rings long, these rings dated as spanning the years 1484-1706. The second oak site chronology, BIDASQ02, comprises four samples, all of them from number 3 Bridge Street. This site chronology is 88 rings long, these rings dated as spanning the years 1632- 1720. Taken overall, the interpretation of the sapwood on the dated samples would indicate that a number of timbers were cut as part of a single programme of felling between 1620-35. Such timbers include those used in the second-floor ceiling and two fireplace lintels of 1 Bridge Street, and the roof of 2 Bridge Street. These timbers were used in conjunction with a few others, also from the roof of 2 Bridge Street, which had been felled earlier (and probably at different times to each other) in the late-sixteenth century or early-seventeenth century. Further timbers, felled in 1706, were used for the main ground- floor ceiling beams of 5 Bridge Street. The final phase of felling is represented by the roof timbers of 3 Bridge Street which were felled in 1720.
