Barlborough Hall, Ward Lane, Barlborough, Derbyshire: Tree-Ring Dating of Timbers
Author(s): Robert Howard, Alison Arnold
Timbers from the Banqueting Hall and the Hall roof of this building complex proved unsuitable for analysis. However analysis undertaken on samples from the roof of the stables at Barlborough Hall resulted in the construction of two site sequences, only one of which could be securely dated. Site sequence BARLSQ01 contains two samples and spans the period AD 1580–1663. Interpretation of the sapwood suggests felling of both timbers in AD 1678–1703, with construction of the roof following shortly after.
