Quicklime Burned in a Rude Stone Kiln, Ure 1839
Limestone burned hot gives off carbonic acid and leaves quicklime. Andrew Ure (1839) describes the oldest kiln: a ring of rough stone walls filled with layers of fuel and broken limestone over brushwood, the top heaped into a cone and covered with sods so it burns slowly and evenly. Quicklime heats hard with water and burns the skin: keep it dry and wear gloves and glasses.

Light the brushwood at the foot from a bow-drill ember. When the kiln is burning well, cover the cone with sods (cut turf), leaving the air gap open, so it burns slowly and evenly for several days.

When it has burned out and gone cold, open it up and rake out the burnt stones, which are now lighter and white. Weigh them and store dry in a lidded metal bucket.
