Description

The Double Limekiln is a Grade II listed structure built from red sandstone rubble, primarily in thin courses, though it also features some larger stones along with carefully constructed quoins and arches. This rectangular, battered building contains a double kiln. It has semi-circular arched fireholes with a central pier and part corbelled roofs. Above the arches is a drip, and there is an apparently rebuilt parapet that rises to the charge holes above. The openings have corbelled heads, and the draught holes appear to be blocked.

Local climate

Double Limekiln receives an average of 890 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 65% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 66% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 36 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 61% of listed buildings. Of these, 14 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
