Bromley House Library, 13, 14, and 15 Angel Row, The Park, Nottingham, Nottinghamshire: Tree-Ring Analysis of Oak Timbers
Author(s): Alison Arnold, Robert Howard, Cathy Tyers
Samples taken from the roof and floor frames within the main range of this building resulted in the successful dating of 16 timbers. Roof timbers and main floor beams from this range have been dated to a felling of AD 1747, and are thought likely to be primary to the original construction of the building in the early AD 1750s. In addition, two common floor joists have been individually dated with terminus post quem dates for felling of AD 1549 and AD 1652, and are thought likely to represent the timbers reused in their current locations.
