Archaeology Notes

NT77NW 53.00 centred 7068 7633

NT77NW 53.01 707 760 Limekilns

The cement works and limestone quarry, owned by Blue Circle Cement, have been recorded on oblique aerial photographs (RCAHMSAP 2003).

Information from RCAHMS (MMB) 15 December 2004

The open-cast mining area behind the Dunbar Cement Works includes a large limestone quarry which formerly supplied some kilns which are noted separately (NT77NW 53.01). With this quarry was associated a limetone mine operated by the Coltness Iron Company, which entered the hillside just north of a by-road at NT707760. Visited 3 April 1966.

A Graham 1966.
