Four disused lime kilns in Lower Lydbrook
On a bank above Vention Road and the Royal Spring Inn. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4902543
The kilns were used to produce lime by heating limestone at about 900 degrees Celsius. Lime was used for a variety of purposes, such as in the smelting of iron, as a fertiliser, and in making whitewash for exterior walls.
