Description

Garn Limekiln No. III is a limekiln built from limestone masonry. It features a straight front wall and has two working areas, each with a large semicircular outer arch. The left working holes are accessible, but only with difficulty. A road now runs over the top of the limekiln, making it hard to determine the interior diameter.
