Eskdale Mill, Boot, Cumbria: Dendrochronological Analysis of Oak Timbers
Author(s): Ian Tyers
A tree-ring dating programme was commissioned on oak timbers from Eskdale Mill. This building is believed to be a Corn Mill mentioned in a survey of AD 1578, to which a second wheel was added c AD 1740. The results identified that the oak timbers from throughout the structural framing and in the machinery were not datable by tree-ring dating techniques. This report archives the dendrochronological sampling and analysis.
