They are here waiting for the glass cover - which was fitted March 2022. The boards are oak, dated to the Late Bronze Age 'not before 952 BC' by dendrochronology (tree ring dating). The cuts can be seen in two of the boards where a section was temporarily removed for dating.
The boards are just under 8 feet or 2.5 metres long. Photo: Mersea Museum - David Cooper Collection Image ID DC10_MUS_121 Category 1 Museum-->History Category 2 Museum-->Artefacts and Contents | |
