11 Silver Street, Bradford-On-Avon, Wiltshire: Tree-Ring Analysis of Timbers

Author(s): Matt Hurford, Dr Martin Bridge, Cathy Tyers

Dendrochronological analysis was undertaken on all eight samples taken from timbers associated with the medieval open hall at 11 Silver Street, Bradford-on-Avon. This resulted in the production of two site chronologies, BASSSQ01 and BASSSQ02, of 88 rings and 108 rings respectively, incorporating a total of seven samples. Unfortunately neither of these site chronologies nor the single ungrouped sample could be successfully dated. Hence no independent dating evidence was provided for the initial construction of this building.
