Abstract: |
This building has at its core two trusses and various other timbers from a medieval hall, thought on typological grounds to date from the late-fifteenth or early sixteenth-centuries. Tree-ring studies have shown that the timbers used in this phase came from very young trees with few rings. The series from two trees were combined to form a 79-year long sequence which failed to date. A beam from the cellar, which represents a later phase of construction, gave a ring-width series dated to the period AD 1461 - 1580, but with no sapwood evident, this only gives a date of use sometime after AD 1589. |
