Lime kilns near Hazard Quarry
Image: © Derek Harper Taken: 12 Feb 2009
A row of three kilns by the lane between Langford Farm and Hazard. From http://www.imagesofengland.org.uk/Details/Default.aspx?id=101272&mode=adv : "the kilns are situated immediately south of Hazard quarry and are built into a bank to allow top loading from the rear. These kilns are especially interesting since one is a dated example {1789}. The nearby Hazard Cottage, originally a pair of cottages, was probably built to house quarrymen or lime burners. The cottage is dated 1792 and is nearly contemporary with the kilns."
