2 kilns a few yards apart, one cut into rock face and fairly intact. Associated with a quarry. May have been the source of building material for Langwith Cotton Mill - c 1800. These kilns are not marked on large scale OS maps. One is just within forestry plantation. 03/01/1969. (1)
These two kilns are hewn out of the rock in corner of the quarry that juts out into NE corner of the new quarry site. One is c 19ft in diameter, now c 8ft deep and the other 9ft diameter now 4ft deep. They were probably in production c 1800. The site is labelled as a quarry on an early Bathurst estate map of about that date. (2)
