Abstract:
Dendrochronological analysis was undertaken on 26 core samples obtained from the chancel and nave roofs of All Saints' Church, Berrington. This analysis produced a single dated site chronology comprising 22 samples. This site chronology has an overall length of 82 rings. These dated as spanning the years AD 1368-1449. Interpretation of the sapwood on the dated samples would suggest the likelihood that the timbers used for each roof may have been cut as part of two slightly different episodes of felling. The timbers of the chancel roof appear to be the earlier of the two, these having an estimated felling date of AD 1446-71. The timbers of the nave roof appear to be slightly later, these having an estimated felling date AD 1457-82. It will thus be seen that there is some overlap in the estimated felling dates of the two sets of timbers, and it is likely that work on the nave roof followed on almost immediately, or with only a short hiatus, after the completion of the chancel roof.
