Abstract: |
Twenty-two oak samples were taken from various elements thought likely to be associated with the primary construction of the Wheat Barn. Nineteen series were dated, producing a site chronology of 114 years, dated as spanning the period AD 1152-1265. All dated samples except one retain the heartwood/sapwood boundary. Several timbers retained complete sapwood, though varying amounts were lost during sampling. This allowed a felling date range of c AD 1266-8 to be derived and this is, therefore, the likely construction date of the barn. |
