Annery kiln, Industrial lime kiln in Monkleigh, England.
The L-shaped structure contains three kilns with seven entrance doorways and nine lower apertures for removing processed limestone near the River Torridge.
The kiln operated near the tidal limit of River Torridge before the construction of Rolle Canal from 1823 to 1827 for coal and limestone transportation.
The industrial site represents North Devon's manufacturing heritage through its limestone processing facilities and connection to local agricultural development.
The former railway line next to the kiln has transformed into the Tarka Trail, offering walking and cycling paths along the historical industrial route.
The kiln complex included specific structures such as a pond for slaking calcium oxide and residences for lime burners, shipbuilders, and blacksmiths.
