Tree-Ring Analysis of Timbers from Ringing-Chamber Floor to the Tower, Church of St Mary the Virgin, Axminster, Devon
Author(s): Dr Martin Bridge
Four timbers from the main structure of the ringing-chamber floor were dated. All retained the heartwood-sapwood boundary, and the interpreted likely felling date range for the four timbers is AD 1425-57. A fifth timber, supporting the floor on the western side, had been identified as a later insertion. The series from this timber was dated to the period AD 1393-1520, with the most likely date range for its felling being AD 1529-61.
