Piedmont Charcoal Kilns, Historic limestone kilns in southwest Wyoming, United States.
The site features three beehive-shaped limestone structures measuring 30 feet in height and width, with walls reaching 24 inches in thickness.
Moses Byrne constructed these industrial kilns in 1869 to produce charcoal for iron smelting operations in Utah, reaching a production of 100,000 bushels annually.
The kilns represent the industrial development of the American West, connecting railroad transportation with mining operations through charcoal production methods.
The site maintains interpretive signs and picnic facilities, located ten miles from Interstate 80 at exit 24 via Leroy Road in southwestern Wyoming.
These structures remain among the few preserved 19th-century charcoal kilns in Wyoming, demonstrating the early industrial processes of wood transformation.
