DESCRIPTION
Details (Known As) Green Farm Lime Kilns, Monarto
Registered Name Green Farm Lime Kilns, Monarto
Significance Built by local agriculturalist George Green in the 1880s, the Green Farm Lime Kilns, Monarto are uncommon surviving examples of the lime kilns that were established across country areas of South Australia during the second half of the nineteenth century. Lime production, known as lime burning, was fundamental to the development of South Australia's early building industry, providing quicklime for mortar and plaster. The lime kilns were built to service the construction of buildings at the farm and for the local district and supplemented the farm's income while utilising the limestone cleared from paddocks. The Green Farm Lime Kilns at Monarto are an exceptional example of the class, displaying characteristics at a higher level of integrity and intactness than is typically found in the state.

Disclaimer

While due care has been taken to ensure that the SA Heritage Places Database accurately reflects the South Australian Heritage Register and listings of Local Heritage Places in Council areas, the State of South Australia does not accept liability for the use of the SA Heritage Database for any purpose. Users should consult the Department for Environment and Water - Heritage South Australia to confirm the listing of State Heritage Places and the Planning and Design Code or their local council for Local Heritage Places.

In the majority of cases, the maps of State Heritage Places on this web site show the footprints of the most significant structures on a registered Place. However, sometimes they simply indicate the complete area of land comprising the Place. Work is proceeding to further refine the mapping of such places. It is also important to note that development control is not limited to the registered structures but extends to their setting and structures nearby (what is termed ‘development affecting’ a State Heritage Place). Hence it is vital that exact details of the listed place and implications for any proposed development be discussed with Heritage South Australia staff, as they cannot be deduced solely from the information on this web site. The inclusion of a place in the SA Heritage Register gives no right of public access. Permission to visit properties must be sought from the owners. The accuracy of the mapping of State Heritage Places is not guaranteed. Please contact Heritage SA ( https://www.environment.sa.gov.au/topics/heritage/sa-heritage-register) if you believe there is an error.
