DENDROCHRONOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF TIMBER FROM EASTGATE, BEVERLEY, 1984.
Author(s): C Groves
Timbers from medieval structures excavated at Eastgate, Beverley, during 1984 were sampled for tree-ring analysis with a view to providing a more precise dating framework for the site. Thirty-four of the 177 samples were species other than oak and these were identified. The oak samples produced a site master curve covering the period AD 858-1310. Over half of the measured oak timbers were dated, thus providing probable dates of construction for many of the structures.
