Abstract:		 Core samples were obtained from 32 different timbers of the various buildings which form Row Ridding Farm. Six of these cores were unsuitable for analysis in having too few rings for reliable dating, while a further eight samples, though measured, were undated. As expected from the brief survey undertaken prior to sampling, the 18 dated samples shows that timbers with different felling dates are to be found here. The earliest phase of felling is represented by the two lintels to the front opening to the 'Hull', these timbers being felled at some point between 1508 at the earliest and 1533 at the latest, while two ceiling beams to the bedrooms of the house, plus one to the ceiling of the first floor hallway are slightly later, being felled between 1517 at the earliest and 1542 at the latest. The lintel of the rear door to the Old Barn was felled between 1526-51, while the two lintels to its front door were felled 1557-82. The next phase of felling is represented by the outer lintel of the door to the rear store to the house, this being felled between 1608 at the earliest and 1633 at the latest. Given that the timbers of the Down-house loft have a felling date of 1611-34, it is possible that all these timbers were in fact felled at about the same time. It is just possible that the ceiling beams of the parlour were felled at the same time as each other, but this seems a little unlikely given that the west beam has a felling date of 1643-68, while the east was felled at some time between 1660-85 (there thus being only a short time overlap between them).
