NU1711 : Twin lime kilns

taken 6 years ago, 3 km from Alnwick, Northumberland, England

Twin lime kilns
Twin lime kilns
Fraternal, rather than identical, twins. The eastern kiln is heavily buttressed while the western one has unusual (in my limited experience) brick drawing arches. Each kiln has three drawing arches and, judging by the surrounding landscape, they were well used. See also NU1711 : Lime kiln and NU1711 : Lime kiln.
