Abstract: |
Three buildings in this farm complex were investigated, the house, the South Barn, and the East Barn. Four phases of the house were dated -- I) the trees for the primary base-cruck phase were felled in AD 1351; ii) oaks used in a second range were most likely felled in the period AD 1488--1507 and were found to be contemporaneous with the East Barn (AD 1484--91); iii) new framing, incorporating a large entrance door, was added to the east side of the house from trees probably felled in AD 1574--1603; and iv) trees for a rear range were felled in AD 1639. The South Barn was found to be younger than estimated on stylistic grounds, the oaks for the primary phase having been felled in the period AD 1411--22. Timbers for the easternmost bays of this barn were cut in the winter of AD 1608/09. Two well-replicated site chronologies were formed, NEWDIGATE 1 (AD 1261--1483), and NEWDIGATE 2 (AD 1492--1639), which will be of use in dating other structures in this region. |
