Ballamenaugh Limekiln

Archaeology

The Ordnance Survey 1:2500 large-scale mapping published in 1870 bears the annotation 'Limekiln', but without indicating the location of the structure.  The 1:10560 mapping published in the same year does, however, mark the building, which was at the grid reference provided. 


There are no surface remains today, but the kiln would appear to have been built into the hillside at a break in the slope.  The site is now traversed by the footpath which provides public access to the hillfort of Cronk Sumark.
