Tree-Ring Analysis of Oak Timbers from the Nave Roof of the Church of St Constantine and St Aegidius, Milton Abbot, Devon
Author(s): Ian Tyers
A tree-ring dating programme was commissioned of timbers in the nave roof of the church of St Constantine and St Aegidius, Milton Abbot, Devon, by English Heritage in AD 2002. The tree-ring results indicate that timbers felled in the first half of the sixteenth century are present in the nave roof. The absence of surviving sapwood presents a precise felling or construction date from being obtained.
