Mortar Wreck Site, Poole, Dorset: Tree-ring Analysis of Oak Timbers
Author(s): Nigel Nayling, Cathy Tyers
Samples were taken as part of a designation assessment from timbers of a clinkerbuilt shipwreck lying on the seabed in the approaches to Poole Harbour, Dorset. The dendrochronological analysis of samples from three adjoining hull planks indicates that they were derived from Irish oak trees felled in the mid-thirteenth century AD.
