Abstract
Tree-ring analysis of well timbers from Godmanchester, Cambridgeshire
The analysis of forty-three timbers from five wells is described. Four of the wells were fourth century AD in date; the fifth, which produced five timbers, was from the early Saxon period. The majority of the timbers, all but two of which were oak, had insufficient rings for dating purposes. However, a felling date of AD~309 was obtained for a timber from one of the wells, and a felling date range of AD~316--348 for six timbers from another. At the present time, these are the only fourth-century AD timbers in England dated by dendrochronology.
