Abstract:
Tree-ring analysis was undertaken on samples taken from oak timbers of the Choir roof of The Minister Church of St John, Beverley, resulting in the construction of a single site sequence. Site sequence BEVKSQ01 contains 24 samples and spans the period AD 1573--1736. Interpretation of the surviving sapwood suggests felling of timbers in the mid-AD 1730s, some timbers having precise felling dates of AD 1735 and AD 1736, with construction likely to have followed shortly after. This would indicate the roof relates to part of the restorations undertaken by Hawksmoor.
