Scope and Content Limekiln by former Carham Station, Roxburghshire This is a large, advanced and well-preserved limekiln. Its site beside a former railway station suggests that it was built to take advantage of rail transport, mainly of coal. The market for the lime was probably a local agricultural one. This is a general view of the kiln. The three arches each give access to one of the three braw holes, the central on to one facing the front, and the side ones to side-facing drawholes. This is a particularly fine kiln. It is rubble-built, but has dressed stone arch rings. The lining is of brick. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
