The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture 200m W of a stream and 35m S of farmyard complex. Lime-kiln depicted at this location on the 1840 ed. OSi 6-inch map as a small circular-shaped area (diam. c. 8m). Depicted on Cassini ed. 6-inch map as a mound which probably represents grass covered mound of collapsed rubble of levelled lime-kiln. No surface remains visible on Digital Globe orthoimage taken between 2011-13 or on Google Earth orthoimages.
See attached Google Earth orthoimages.
