Lime Kilns in Carmel National Nature Reserve

This part of the reserve, enclosed by roads, has many old abandoned quarries. In fact a swathe of land running beyond to the east and west has been used for limestone quarrying at one time or other. Like many with any significant sized chamber intact, these kilns have been blocked off for safety.
