Description
Three elm (Ulmus spp.) timbers and an oak timber from the Hall and Service ranges gave felling dates over a period from Spring 1446 to Summer 1447, suggesting construction of this part of the house in 1447, or within a year or two after this date. The cross-wing contained timbers felled during Spring 1467 and Spring 1468, suggesting construction of this phase in 1468, or within a year or two after this date.
