In order to avoid confusion, a date which in the modern calendar would be written 2 February 1714 is written 2 February 1713/4 - i.e. the baptism, marriage or burial occurred in the 3 months (January, February and the first 3 weeks of March) of 1713 which 'rolled over' into what in a modern calendar would be 1714. • Civil registration was introduced in England and Wales in 1837 and records were archived quarterly; hence, for example, 'born in 1840Q1' the author here uses to mean that the birth took place in January, February or March of 1840. Where only a baptism date is given for an individual born after 1837, assume the birth was registered in the same quarter.

Chestnut is an introduced species in the UK, grown predominantly in Southern England as inten- sive coppice and as high forest. The forest area is decreasing and the forest type changing from predominately coppice to high forest. As traditional agricultural and horticultural markets are declining, finger jointing and pioneering wet gluing technology has developed to produce new products. This paper also gives structural data for chestnut as a construction timber in the UK, obtained for the first time. Keywords: chestnut, timber, distribution, management, utilisation 1 Background Chestnut (Castanea sativa) has been grown in the UK for two thousand years and is thought to have been introduced by the Romans (WHITE 1995). Ancient trees include the Tortworth Chestnut in Gloucestershire estimated to be 1200 years old (MILLS 1999). The distribution area for chestnut is mainly Southern England. In the counties of Kent and East Sussex in southern England, extensive areas of chestnut coppice grow on non-calcareous soils, either as a pure crop or with oak standards, and have been common landscape features for cen- turies, closely associated with hop growing (WHITE 1995). In the UK, chestnut is grown sole- ly for its timber as nut production is not economically viable under UK growing conditions; however, its fruit is collected by many people when available.
