At the base of an E-facing slope of low ridge running roughly N-S. Field under tillage. No visible trace at ground level. This kiln was excavated in 1986 and consisted of 'the side walls of a partly destroyed, keyhole-shaped corn-drying kiln, maximum dimensions 6.60m long and 1.30m wide. An area of rough pebble paving was revealed at the entrance area of the drafting flue which had a clearly defined 'fire-bowl'. Remains of charred cereal grain were retrieved from the fill of the circular drying chamber...There were no other features or finds' (O'Donnell 1987, 33). A full description of the excavation is published (Gowen 1988, 158-62).
