TREE-RING ANALYSIS OF TIMBERS FROM TUNSTALL HALL FARM, ELWICK ROAD, HARTLEPOOL, CLEVELAND

Author(s): Robert Howard, R R Laxton, Cliff Litton

Fourteen samples from the timbers of the main front-range roof of Tunstall Hall Farm were analysed by tree-ring dating. This analysis produced a single site chronology of 169 rings spanning the period AD 1316 - AD 1484. Interpretation of the sapwood on the samples suggests that all the timbers used in the roof are from trees with a single phase of felling dated to AD 1484.
