Description
This is a disused lime-kiln dating from the late 18th century to the early 19th century, built for John Hutton of Marske Hall. The structure is made of rubble and has an irregular circular plan. It features triangular-shaped hearths to the north and west, with the western hearth having a segmental-arched opening, although the arch has collapsed to the north. At the top, there is a large hole that served both hearths, but the stonework has now fallen in. John Hutton was known as an important agricultural improver who reclaimed large areas of scrub land for farming, even at this high altitude.
