    Tips

    Hiking

    Built for the Craven Lime Company in 1873, this kiln had 22 firing chambers and limestone was burned without a break around the kiln in a circuit, which took six weeks, according to the information board here.

    If you are a history buff, and not just into the big figures like Henry VIII and Winston Churchill, but like the small social history, this is a place to be. Fascinating stuff.
