TREE-RING ANALYSIS OF TIMBERS FROM THE ARCHDEACON OF EXETER'S HOUSE, PALACE GATE, EXETER
Author(s): Robert Howard, R R Laxton, Cliff Litton
Analysis was undertaken of samples from fourteen oak beams in the roof of the Archdeacon of Exeter's House, Exeter. This resulted in the production of a single site chronology of 219 rings spanning the period AD 1186-1404. Interpretation of the heartwood/sapwood boundaries on the dated samples indicates that the timbers have an estimated felling date in the range AD 1415-1440.
