Abstract:
Thirty-two samples from Medbourne Manor were analysed by tree-ring dating. This analysis produced two site chronologies. The first, consisting of twenty samples, has 220 rings spanning the period AD 1068--1287. The site chronology, composed of three samples, has 102 rings spanning the period AD 1045--1146. A single sample of 121 rings was dated as spanning the period AD 1393--1467. Interpretation of the sapwood on the dated samples would indicate that there are at least four phases of felling represented. It would appear that the north bay of the hall is the earliest, with and estimated felling date in the range AD 1212--32. The next phase is represented by the timbers reused as arcade plates and the timbers of truss B, which have a felling date of AD 1237.
