Lawrenceholme Farm, Oulton, Cumbria : Tree-Ring Analysis of Timbers from Buildings

Author(s): Alison Arnold, Robert Howard, Cliff Litton

A total of 31 samples was obtained from the timbers within four separate buildings at Lawrenceholme Farm, Oulton. Of these 31 samples, 22 were measured, nine samples having too few rings for reliable analysis. From these measured data, five separate site chronologies, accounting for a total of 11 samples, were created. These chronologies have overall lengths of between 68 and 162 rings. Despite being compared to an extensive collection of reference chronologies, none of the five site chronologies, nor the 11 remaining measured but ungrouped samples, could be dated.
