Very high significance due to the quantity and variety of kilns, the largest such kiln site in the district. It is also significant as a site that resumed operations after the extensive buy-out of smaller operators in the 1960s.
This is a collection of kilns, including the unusual bottle kiln. The site is now disused but includes a quarry. Kiln 28, 30 and 31 are single three-arch, kiln 29 a two-arch and kilns 42 and 46 bottle kilns.
The first operation of the kilns was between the mid 1930s and c1950. In the late 1960s the site was amongst many in the area purchased by Swan Portland Cement Company. However unlike the other sites, some of the kilns here were returned to service in the late 1980s when Menchetti took over the site to supply lime.
