A dendrochronological assessment was undertaken at Kinneil House near Bo'ness at the request of HES through the PIC call-off contract with CFA Archaeology Ltd. The focus of the assessment was the Kinneil House building complex, comprising the main tower, its two flanking pavilion towers, and the north east wing. The following were assessed: (A) three archaeological timbers previously recovered from a well below the north east wing; (B) a group of six decoratively painted boards on display in the north east wing; (C) the coffered wooden ceiling of the Parable Room in the north east wing; (D) joist ends surviving in the fabric of the north east wing; (E) timbers surviving in the fabric of the main tower and its flanking pavilions, including joist ends and lintels.
