In 2001, historic research, followed where appropriate by dendrochronology (tree ring) analysis has been carried out on the most historic buildings in the village. This work has provided clear dating evidence for the 21 buildings illustrated with many more being inspected but proving unsuitable for dating. The dates given are the earliest recorded. The extent of this programme of work has meant that Pembridge now has the most buildings ‘dendro’ dated in the UK.

Dendrochronology carried out by Dr. Ian Tyers of Arcus Dendrochronology Laboratory, University of Sheffield.
