Abstract:		 Dendrochronological analysis was undertaken on 39 of the 54 oak timber samples taken from different locations within the extensive complex of buildings at Cropple How. This resulted in the production of six site chronologies, each comprising between two and five samples, of lengths between 60 and104 rings. These six site chronologies account for 15 measured samples. Only one site chronology, comprising two samples from principal rafters of the Garage barn, could be dated by dendrochronology, these giving an estimated felling date in the range of AD 1517-42. Thus, cores from three of the five undated sequences were selected for radiocarbon dating and wiggle-matching. This method suggested the likelihood that small assemblages of timbers were felled concurrently and episodically as required, ranging from the early mid-sixteenth to the mid-eighteenth centuries.
