Abstract:		 King's Head Cottage, Banham retains elements of a medieval timber-framed building including rare carved queen-posts with a raised-aisle roof truss. The rarity of these features have made the building difficult to date on purely stylistic grounds. The structure has undergone a whole series of subsequent alterations including the insertion of a new first floor over the hall, the replacement of some earlier first-floor framing, and the insertion of a new roof truss of jointed tiebeam construction adjacent to the chimney stack. These alterations have been dated on stylistic grounds to the late-seventeenth century. Dendrochronological sampling and analysis of these two phases of construction were commissioned to inform a planned restoration programme for this grade II* building-at-risk. Unfortunately none of the timbers sampled have dated.
