Abstract:		 An interdisciplinary study involving documentary research and investigation of the fabric of St Giles House was undertaken between 2003 and 2017. The detailed understanding gained has underpinned a detailed programme of repairs and conservation works. As part of a pilot study to determine the feasibility of using luminescence dating of brick to understand historic buildings, 15 bricks were sampled and analysed in 2003-5. In 2014, 15 timbers were sampled for dendrochronology from six areas of the building, and subsequently radiocarbon dating and wiggle-matching was undertaken on two of these cores which could not be dated by dendrochronology. Bayesian chronological modelling was undertaken to combine the scientific dates with the relative and absolute dating of the surviving fabric known from architectural, structural, and documentary evidence. This analysis has clarified the extent of the documented constructed phases. Luminescence dates from the basement show that the east addition of AD 1650-9 incorporated some fragments of an earlier manor house on the site together with some rebuilding.
