Abstract: |
The observations allowed for detail to be added to the known historical development of the tower, the origins of which were dated to 1312. A substantial rebuilding event was identifed within the corner turrets of the tower which indicated a significant modification and gentrification of the tower in the early 17th century. Dendrochronological analysis of samples taken from the principal roof of the upper floor of the tower provided a date of 1615 for this major phase of rebuilding which served to create the overall form of the building which had survived to the present day.
