NY7004 : Old lime kiln at Will Hill [2]
taken 5 years ago, near to Newbiggin-on-Lune, Cumbria, England
Old lime kiln at Will Hill [2]
A few yards further along the track and one can see that the lime kiln has two draw arches. The quarry for the limestone is mostly hidden behind and above the kiln, whilst one wonders how close to the geological boundary this limestone is. A glance at the map shows areas such as Tailor Mire only a few hundred metres away, suggesting that the underlying Silurian grits and shales of the Howgills may be the rock type here.
