THE TREE-RING DATING OF UPPER LAKE, WESTBURY, SHROPSHIRE

Author(s): Daniel Miles, Michael Worthington

Eight timbers were sampled at Upper Lake, Westbury, Shropshire. All eight dated and were combined to form the 129-year site chronology UPPRLAKE, spanning the years AD 1418-1546. Four of the samples retained complete sapwood giving precie felling dates of summer AD 1545, winter AD 1545/6, and summer AD 1547. Four other samples with incomplete sapwood gave felling date ranges consistent with these results.
