Abstract: |
The analysis of 43 timbers from five wells is described. Four of the wells were 4th century AD in date; the fifth, which produced five timbers, was from the early Saxon period. The majority of the timbers, all but two of which were oak, had insufficient rings for dating purposes. However a felling date of AD309 was obtained for a timber from one of the wells, and a felling date range of AD316-348 for six timbers from another. At the present time, these are the only 4th century AD timbers in England dated by dendrochronology. |
