Must Farm. Whittlesey, Cambridgeshire: Dendrochronological and Radiocarbon Dating
Author(s): Ian Tyers, Peter Marshall, Bronk Ramsey, Elaine Dunbar, Irka Hajdas, Sanne Palstra, Paula Reimer, Lukas Wacker
The Must Farm pile-dwelling site is an extraordinarily well-preserved Late Bronze Age settlement in Cambridgeshire built over a freshwater palaeochannel that was destroyed by a catastrophic fire shortly after its construction. Predating the settlement was a double-alignment of massive oak piles. This technical archive report on the tree-ring and radiocarbon analysis of samples from the site provides full details of the dendrochronological and radiocarbon dating programmes. The significance of the results is discussed more fully in Tyers et al (2024) and Knight et al (2024).
