After many years of neglect and decay we are delighted to say that the stabilisation and restoration of the Lime Kiln has been completed with funding from the Friends of The Lake District and our own resources. Jack Ellerby worked closely with the contractors to ensure the structure was repaired to its original outline using the existing materials that had been partly buried over the decades. the stabilisation will ensure that the Iconic heart of the wood remains in good order for many years to come.

Our thanks go to all involved and Jack in particular who not only worked to complete the project but ensured the best value for both the Wood and the Friends.

The photos show the Initial project and of course the final outcome.
