Lime Kiln Ruins |
| Registered Name |
Lime Kiln Ruins |
| Significance |
These three brick-lined lime kilns were established in the 1920s and provided lime to a wide area during the 1920s and 1930s. Although the production of cement was introduced to the State on an on-going basis in the early 1910s, lime manufacturing continued as a local industry on a small scale throughout the State for several decades. The Bower lime works, the largest in the region, are representative of a local plant which provided an alternative industry in the area in the years before World War Two (HSA, 1/2000). |
