Abstract:		 Twenty-four samples were taken from fourteen timbers from Mottisfont Abbey, Romsey, Hampshire (SU 326 269). Nine of the timbers sampled were from what was originally the nave. Five of these were from the principal trusses of the roof, while the other four were from the arch-braced couple roof in the middle of the nave range. A further five samples were taken from the roof of the west cloister range. At least one sample from each of these areas dated, giving precise dates which ranged from spring AD 1538 to spring AD 1539. One re-used purlin from the cloister roof also dated to the winter of AD 1734/5. The dating showed that all three roofs were coeval and clearly the work of Lord Sandys immediately after the Dissolution, making the principal chamber an important early example of non-royal domestic arrangement.
