The Globe Theatre was a timber-frame building.
The Kings Men (Shakespeare's company) had originally performed in The Theatre, a timber-frame building which was custom built for them by James Burbage around 1576.
When the original land lease expired the owner of the site where The Theatre stood (Giles Allen) threatened to demolish the building. James Burbage had died, and the Kings Men were now managed by James' son Richard Burbage.
Sometime over Christmas 1598/9 Richard Burbage and some labourers disassembled The Theatre's timber structure (without warning Giles Allen), moved the timbers across the Thames, and re-assembled the building with the new name of The Globe.
There were several legal suits from Allen (who was a bit annoyed), but they petered out eventually. And the Kings Men had a theatre again.
