TREE-RING ANALYSIS OF TIMBERS FROM SWAN LANE, CITY OF LONDON, 1981.
Author(s): C Groves, J Hillam
Over 100 oak timbers from structures associated with theconstruction and development of the waterfront at Swan Lane, City of London, were examined at the Sheffield Dendrochronology Laboratory. The study produced two master site curves covering the periods 56 BC - 169 AD and 938 - 1192 AD, plus two tree-ring sequences which span the fourteenth and early fifteenth centuries. Interpretation of the tree-ring dates was made difficult because of absence of sapwood.
