Abstract: |
The earliest group of timbers identified were those used in the construction of the roof of the hall house, felled in AD 1283. The inserted first-floor frame in this part of the building contains timbers felled in AD 1622-39, and at least two re-used joists felled in AD 1546-71. The roof of the south-west wing utilises timbers felled in AD 1551-71. The roof over the west wing is constructed from timbers felled in AD 1622, whilst the first-floor frame in this part of the house utilises timbers felled in AD 1614-39 and AD 1668. Also, located in this wing is a ground-floor fireplace bresummer felled in AD 1629 and a series of floorboards on the first floor with terminus post quem felling dates reanging from AD 1535 to AD 1577. A fireplace bresummer in the chapel dates to AD 1510-35 but it is thought to be reused. |
