TREE-RING ANALYSIS OF TIMBERS FROM PLACE HOUSE, BLUECOAT YARD, WARE, HERTFORDSHIRE
Author(s): Robert Howard, R R Laxton, Cliff Litton
Dendrochronological analysis was undertaken of samples from eight oak timbers from Place House, Ware. A single site chronology of 75 rings, consisting of two samples, was produced spanning the period AD 1179 to AD 1253. One of the samples has a felling date in the range AD 1246 to AD 1271. The felling date of the other sample cannot be estimated because it has no sapwood. It has thus not been possible to produce any satisfactory dendrochronological interpretation of the building.
