Abstract:
Dendrochronological analysis was undertaken on timbers from two wreck sites known as the Alum Bay Wrecks 1 and 2, lying underwater in the approaches to the coast of the Isle of Wight. The work was undertaken to assist with the characterisation and identification of the wrecks. Two broadly coeval samples from Alum Bay Wreck 1 were dated, with one providing a felling date range of AD 1797-1833. Two samples from Alum Bay Wreck 2 were also dated, these both retaining possible bark edge, and hence having possible felling dates of AD 1795 and AD 1799, and certainly felled in the very late eighteenth or early nineteenth centuries. The two wreck sites could therefore have some association given the similarity of the dating evidence obtained.
