Limekiln country

Large commercial intermittent limekilns remains at Clogau Bach, Pen Rhiw-ddu, Carmarthenshire. The mounds below each kiln comprise the ashes and waste material from each burning. The track for the carts that carried away the burned lime runs between kilns on the left and the waste tips on the right. The hillsides in this area are just a mass of limeburning remains and must have been a very busy place around 1800.
