St Andrew's Church, Cheddar, Somerset: Tree-Ring Analysis of Further Timbers from the Nave Roof and Ceiling
Author(s): Dr Martin Bridge
A number of wallplates had previously yielded reasonably long tree-ring series which did not date. Access to the upper part of the roof allowed sampling of additional elements of the roof, along with three boards and a beam from the ceiling. Sequences from two ceiling boards were found to match a series from the wallplates, and a new 188-year site chronology was formed, but neither this, nor any of the other sequences from this or the previous study yielded dates.
