Full Description
{1}The only other industrial activity [apart from cloth production] so far identified in the settlement is related to lime production. In 1383-4 tar barrels were used to start the fire in the lime kiln at Rockingham and payments also made to Robert Mason for mending 'le brandild del lymekilne'. The Lyme-kilne quarter is recorded in 1615 within the north east part of the deer park in an area on limestone geology where quarry pits have been recorded cutting across the presumed medieval park pale.
