2/59 Lime kiln at approx 12m south-west - of Golden Gear and Kennel Cottages

GV II

Lime kiln. Probably C18, but a lime kiln is recorded here in the reign of Henry VIII. Shale rubble walls, slightly battered with partly dressed granite quoins, brick vaults and kiln lining. Square-on-plan with vaulted tapered working area recessed at either side (south-west and north east). Round kiln shaft with conical base. The working bays (for firing and emptying the kiln) are now obscured by C20 lean-tos but the whole structure is very complete with an embattled parapet surrounding the upper working area for loading the kiln. This is one of the best examples of a C18 lime kiln in Cornwall. The lime was much used locally on the land for neutralizing the very acid soils.
