Monument record MDR2154 - Lime Kiln and Limestone Quarry, 550m South of Litton Mill, Brushfield
Type and Period (2)
Protected Status/Designation
- None recorded
Full Description
Large lime kiln and adjacent limestone quarry. Largely collapsed and grassed over, but easily recognisable. The draw tunnel has collapsed, and the furnace chamber has largely filled-in, though some lining bricks are scattered over the site. (1). Recorded on the 1880 Ordnance Survey map as a limekiln. Therefore still in use in this date. (3)
