Description
Sapwood evidence from the old dairy (EHER 40666) suggests that it could not have been built before the winter of AD1759/60 and therfore was probably built in 1760. Four timbers from timbers barn are adted and used to form a chronology spanning AD1550-1638. The timbers produce prec ise fellling dates, 2 in 1638 and one the winter of 1638/9, suggesting construction started in 1639 or soon after.
