Cults Hill Limeworks (NO 351 088) was surveyed at the request of Fife Regional Council and Historic Scotland. The survey was designed to map the industrial remains, which are unusually well preserved, at this historically important lime quarry and its associated processing works. The lime quarries and kilns had been in operation at least since the end of the 18th century and the tramway system that linked the mines to the kilns can still be traced.
