Title Tree-Ring Analysis of Medieval Bridge Timbers from Willaston Moated Site, Near Nantwich, Cheshire, 1990
Author/Originator
Date/Year 1990

Abstract/Summary

Tree ring analysis was carried out on ten oak timbers taken from the foundations of a medieval bridge at Willaston moated site. The ring sequences from four projecting plates were cross-matched and a tree ring chronology spanning the years AD 917-1205 was produced. The four dated timbers are likely to be contemporary and were therefore all felled after AD 1215. (1)
