Lime kiln and attached outbuilding. C19. Coursed rubble,
corrugated iron roof. A prominent half-cylindrical kiln built
into the roadside bank, with a low single-storey lean-to range
aross the front. The kiln rises c 4m from pavement level, and
is c 3.5m wide, with flat plain front over an opening to large
quoins, the hearth in a brick segmental vault filling an
earlier opening. The back of the kiln is semi-circular, built

Attached lean-to is c 10m long and 1.75m high at front; wide
