Woodhenge, Durrington, Wiltshire: Radiocarbon Dating and Chronological Modelling
Author(s): Peter Marshall, Amanda Chadburn, Irka Hajdas, Michael Dee, Joshua Pollard
Radiocarbon dating and chronological modelling of samples from Woodhenge was undertaken in support of research undertaken by Dr Amanda Chadburn for a Historic England book, Stonehenge: Sighting the Sun (Ruggles and Chadburn 2024). The results suggest that the timber monument was constructed in 2635–2575 cal BC (95% probability), probably in 2635–2610 cal BC (54% probability) or 2595–2580 cal BC (14% probability) and enclosed by the ditch and bank in 2555–2505 cal BC (2% probability) or 2495–2180 cal BC (93% probability), probably in 2465–2345 cal BC (68% probability).
