Tree-Ring Analysis of Timbers from Eastgate, Beverley 1984

Author(s): C Groves

Timbers from structures excavated at Eastgate, Beverley, during 1984 were sampled for tree-ring analysis with a view to providing a 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 AD858-1310. Over half of the measured oak timbers were dated, thus providing estimated dates of construction for various structures. (Replaces AML Report 32/87)
