Across the burn from the Old Castle (NS53NW 10) is a substantial limekiln with two large draw holes and formerly a date stone showing 1771 was to be seen high on its structure. 18th and early 19th-century quarrying of the motte almost certainly accounts for its present shape on the NW side. Scooped slopes, now overgrown, typical of quarrying are also seen along the steep bank of the river.
