What is recorded here
Lime kilns fired through the nineteenth century, turning local stone into the white powder that built Swansea. Castle Road may have carried that burning smell past working homes and busy carts. The kiln no longer stands as a visible monument, but it still marks the city's industrial hunger.
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Lime Kiln, Castle Road as Lime Kiln from the Post Medieval; 19th Century period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
