Description

This is a large circular lime kiln located southeast of Pwll, constructed from rubble stone and standing approximately 5 meters high. The walls of the kiln are stepped out at the northwest side, which may indicate a rebuilding. There are two kiln eyes, which are open crucibles. The kiln eyes are shaped like curved keels and feature tall exterior openings with rough-stone triangular heads, where the stones are stepped inward.
