The last remaining building in the area. The lime kiln can be accessed by walking through the forest behind the house.

"Always Loyal", presumably an original motto of the United Empire Loyalists.

Unfortunately there is no trail to the kiln, and one has to descend a dangerous portion of escarpment wall, but that has kept people away from the ruin and probably preserved it.

A prominent view of the surrounding area. In better resolution, one can see construction through the trees on the replacement for OAP location #9487.
