Description
The bank of 12 limekilns, built between 1844 and 1848 by Messrs. Long Keeling and Nowell, is a notable structure made of coursed rubble. It stands approximately 20 feet high and extends about 100 feet in length. The openings, or eyes, of the kilns are around 5 to 6 feet high, with the four kilns at the eastern end featuring round arched doors constructed with voussoirs. This bank of kilns was linked to a nearby quarry by a tramway that ran along the top of the structure. It is believed to be the longest bank of limekilns in Southern England.
