Lime kilns at Eastcastle
Adjoining the Consett and Sunderland Railway Path, also known as Bantling Castle. Looking down at the top of the limekilns built by the Stanhope and Tyne Railway Company about 1834. Lime from here was used in the construction of Newcastle Central Station. The lime kilns were partly restored by Sustrans and Groundwork in 2008-9.
