Two small stone-lined kilns joined by an interconnected flue were dug into the gravel. Both kilns were crude and constructed of drystone, incorporating rock outcrop. They averaged 0.8m to 1.1m across internally. They reached 1.2m deep at most, and the interiors were full up of later rubble. One of the kilns was partly filled with some shell midden material.
