Abstract: |
Dendrochronological analysis was undertaken on samples taken from timbers of the barn and former farmhouse at Ling Bob Farm, resulting in the construction and dating of two site sequences and the individual dating of two samples. Site sequence LBOBSQ01 contains two samples and spans the period 950-1246 whilst site sequence LBOBSQ02 contains nine samples and spans the period 1496-1664. Sample LBO-B02 was dated to a first-ring date of 1420 and a last-measured ring date of 1532 and LBO-B16 to a first- ring date of 1513 and a last-measured ring date of 1573. The barn contains reused timber dating to 1261-86 and at least one primary timber dating to 1666-91. Two other barn samples have terminus post quem felling dates of 1547 and 1653. The roof of the former farmhouse contains timber of 1602 with construction likely to have occurred shortly after. A single purlin was found to be later, dating to 1661-86, and is thought to represent a repair. |
