Abstract: |
Dendrochronological analysis was undertaken on all 20 samples taken from the hall and cross-wing roofs. This resulted in the production of two site chronologies, DSDPSQ01 and DSDPSQ02, comprising eleven and nine samples respectively. DSDPSQ01 can be dated as spanning the years AD 1393-1580 and DSDPSQ02 as spanning the years AD 1122-1355. The results indicate that the hall roof is constructed of timber that is likely to represent a single programme of felling dating to AD 1356-79, whilst the cross-wing was probably constructed just over two centuries later using timber, again representing a single felling programme, predominantly felled in the early, or possibly mid-, AD 1580s. |
