Abstract:		 Dendrochronological analysis was carried out on samples from fifteen oak timbers recovered during dredging operations as part of the London Gateway project. None of the ring-width series from these samples could be absolutely dated against British or European chronologies. However, three tangentially sawn timbers (LG5021, LG5023 and LG5024) cross dated against each other allowing construction of a 67-year sequence and analysis suggests they were part of the same structure and may have been sourced from the same tree. Examination of two further timbers (LG2003 and LG1147) indicates that they are sourced from tropical hardwood species and would require further specialist microscopic examination to identify them to species level.
