NN63NE 112 66236 39004.
A small free-standing circular kiln, erected on top of W bank of track. (Edinburgh University Centre for Field Archaeology Survey Report, 1989, No. 106. See RCAHMS MS625/5).
There are two small kilns, standing 10m apart, in enclosed pasture about 100m NNW of the farmstead described under NN63NE 38. That to the SE (BL00 1741) has been built over a bank bounding the W side of a trackway. It measures 1.4m in diameter and 1.1m in depth within a stone-faced bank, and the flue opens towards the SE. That to the NW (BL00 1751) is poorly-preserved. It measures 1.2m in diameter and 0.5m in depth within a stony bank, and the flue is on the E.
(BL00 1741, 1751)
