Abstract: |
Dendrochronological analysis was undertaken on timbers from the roof, floor frame, and a partition resulting in the construction of three site sequences. Site sequence BRMNSQ01 contains six samples from roof timbers and spans the period AD 1487-1577. Interpretation of the surviving sapwood suggests felling of these timbers occurred in AD 1581-1606, possibly AD 1590-1606, with construction of the barn likely to have followed shortly after felling. Site sequence BRMNSQ02 contains nine samples, a mixture of joists from the floor frame and studs from the partition and spans the period AD 1661-1740. Felling of these timbers is likely to have occurred in AD 1741-60 and indicates that these modifications are coeval. The third site sequence, BRMNSQ03, is undated as are a series of unmatched individual timber series. |
