Abstract/Summary

'Samples were taken as part of a designation assessment from timbers of a clinker-built shipwreck lying on the seabed in the approaches to Poole Harbour, Dorset. The dendrochronological analysis of samples from three adjoining hull planks indicates that they were derived from irish oak trees felled in the mid-thirteenth century AD. '
