Tree-ring analysis was carried out on samples from the dismantled bellframe and supporting timbers, and from in situ timbers in the tower. The bellframe timbers were probably all felled in 1792. Only one of the supporting timbers could be dated and this was felled in 1455, however it is unclear if this timber has been re-used. Three of the lower timbers from the tower date to the mid 16th century, however some timbers remain undated. {8} | Subjects: | Building | Temporal: | 850 - 2050 | Source: | Lincolnshire County Council | Identifier: | http://www.lincstothepast.com/Records/Re... | Go to resource |
