Abstract: |
Dendrochronological analysis was undertaken on samples taken from timbers of this aisled barn, resulting in the construction and dating of two site sequences. Site sequence CRGHSQ01 contains six samples and spans the period 1416-1602 whilst site sequence CRGHSQ02 contains two samples and spans the period 1419-1488. Interpretation of the sapwood has identified two separate fellings amongst the timbers used in the construction of this building. The earlier timbers, as represented by two tiebeams and a brace, were felled in c 1522 whilst two aisle plates, two principal rafters, and a brace were felled in 1602. These results suggest original construction of the barn occurred towards the end of the first quarter of the sixteenth century with modifications being undertaken in or shortly after 1602. A further site sequence is undated. |
