Abstract:
The church of St Mary the Virgin in Yatton, has a south aisle ceiling consisting of moulded ribs, panelling, and carved bosses. The church is thought to be principally thirteenth century, but the aisles are thought to be fifteenth century with nineteenth-century additions. The south aisle roof is currently undergoing an English Heritage grant-aided programme of repair. This report covers the dendrochronological analysis of a series of samples taken from the moulded ribs in the ceiling, and the structure above. This analysis was undertaken to clarify the dating of the surviving timbers so as to inform repair decisions. The results indicate that the moulded ribs in the ceiling date from the first half of the fifteenth century, and that the trusses above include timbers felled c AD 1691/2. The results seem to provide convincing evidence for the extensive survival of the original fifteenth-century ceiling, and demonstrate that there has been later repairs, or modifications, to the structure
