Alnwick Moor Quarry Lime Kiln
Lime Kiln In Alnwick, Northumberland
A lime kiln situated on Alnwick Moor, one of 400 that would have been used in Northumberland.
Unsurprisingly very little information about this lime kiln which sits on Alnwick Moor. As with most lime kilns in the area it would have been built in the early 19th century.
This lovely example has three draw arches and there is one eve on per arch.
It's also situated just along from the wonderfully named Cut Throat Letch,
Thanks to Kevin Middlemiss for the photographs.

Thanks for checking out this place on the Fabulous North! I do enjoy a wander out in to the countryside trying to find hidden gems that not many people know about. You can't beat a rogue pele tower up a remote hill, a mysterious stone circle or a stunning waterfall secluded in a forest.
