Imported from Torbay HER


Griffith, F.M., 1990, Mill Lane, Lime Kiln (Personal Comment). SDV362089.

A lime kiln is shown on the OS 1864 County series 1:2500 contained on a Torbay HBSMR GIS layer. When visited it was
just visible on the south-east side of the road to Galmpton Creek, south of Manor Farm. In 1990 it appeareds to be basically in good condition (the well is high above the road level in vegetation and was not inspected,) although the lower part was largely filled with rubbish.

The kiln was restored in 2003.

The South side of the road is part of South Hams DC, DCC.
