Cotehele & Bohetherick Lime Kilns, Saltash, Cornwall

I return to the stunning Duchy of Cornwall, famous for it's precariously perched cliffside tin mines, but less well known are it's abundance of lime kilns from the 18th & 19th century. Mostly positioned on the banks of waterways. In this explore you find me on the banks of the River Tamar, where I explore two remaining examples... I also find a duck!

Remember that day well, torrential rain,pasties and steep hills.

Yes very wet, but Pastfinder takes all that in his stride. It is his way.
