2024. Dendrochronological Survey.
Sampling was restricted to the main ground-floor ceiling beams and the chimney bressumers. Core samples were taken from a total of six oak timbers, with one from a ceiling beam found to match the reference chronologies consistently and securely. This could be dated to the winter of AD 1600/1601. This makes it likely that the building is indeed of very early 17th-century date, being erected shortly after the fire of June 1600. The other samples did not produce any secure matching and thus remain undated.
See report (S7) for further details.
