Abstract: |
Dendrochronological analysis was undertaken on samples from the roofs and floors of the South and East ranges, and the junction between the two (the South-east corner), and from the roof of the West range. This resulted in the construction of 13 site sequences, four of which were successfully dated, as was an individual sample. The earliest timber is from an oak floor beam in the south-east corner, dated to AD 1704 and thought to be a survival from an earlier building. Three oak floor beams in the east range have been dated to AD 1722 and are believed to relate to the original construction of this part of the complex. A series of pine floor beams from within the South range have been dated to a felling of after AD 1701, and thought likely that felling occurred in the early/mid-eighteenth century. Several pine purlins within the West range roof were also likely to have been felled and used in construction shortly after, in the early/mid-eighteenth century. A number of pine roof timbers from the South and East ranges and the South-east corner were dated. These appear to be broadly coeval with felling indicated in the early AD 1780s, suggesting that these areas of the complex were re-roofed towards the end of the eighteenth century. |
