TREE-RING ANALYSIS OF TIMBERS FROM EXETER, GUILDHALL, HIGH STREET, EXETER, DEVON
Author(s): Robert Howard, R R Laxton, Cliff Litton
Twenty-six samples from the roof of Exeter Guildhall were analysed by tree-ring dating. This analysis produced three site chronologies. The first, consisting of eight samples, has 143 rings spanning the period AD 1314 - 1456. Interpretation of the sapwood on the dated samples would indicate a felling date for the timbers represented in the range Ad 1463 to AD 1498.
