Abstract: |
Core samples were obtained from seven different rafters and one blade within a cruck building at The Celyn, Lower Maescoed. Analysis of these cores, in conjunction with data obtained during a previous programme of tree-ring dating at The Celyn produced a single site chronology, CYNASQ01, comprising seven samples and having an overall length of 120 rings. These 120 rings were satisfactorily dated as spanning the years 1347 to 1466. Interpretation of the sapwood on the dated samples would indicate that all the cores represent timbers felled between late 1466 and early 1467, and that the roof, which in any case appears to be structurally of one build and integral with the body of the house, is the same date as the main building timbers. |
