Great Barn, Mill Lane, Chalgrove, Oxfordshire: Tree-Ring Analysis of Elm Timbers
Author(s): Dr Martin Bridge, Cathy Tyers
Ten elm timbers were sampled from the converted Great Barn, Chalgrove, Oxfordshire, as part of the Developing the dendrochronology of elm in historic buildings project. Cross-matching found two timbers with similar growth patterns, and all timbers showed sensitive growth patterns (ie high year-to-year variation in growth). None of the ring width series could be dated by comparison with oak growth curves.
