Monks Walk, 19 Highgate, Beverley, East Riding of Yorkshire: Radiocarbon Wiggle-Matching of Oak Timbers

Author(s): Robert Howard, Alison Arnold, Cathy Tyers, Peter Marshall, Silvia Bollhalder, Lukas Wacker

Independent validation of tentative tree-ring dating for a previously undated site chronology, BEVFSQ02, from Monks Walk, Beverley, East Riding of Yorkshire, has been obtained by radiocarbon wiggle-matching and it can now be considered as a radiocarbonsupported dendrochronological date, that spans AD 1142–1300DR. The three-bay front range to Monks Walk was therefore constructed in the early fourteenth century with significant rebuilding or repair work being undertaken to the building in the late sixteenth century.
