A remarkable survivor, the limekiln at High Lane lies below the bank on which runs the branch off the Macclesfield Canal which served High Lane wharf and also a private arm to the Norbury and Middlewood collieries of Clayton and Brooke.

In 1907 when the 25inch Ordnance Survey map (left) was revised the kiln was already out of use. It appears to have been operating in the 1870's when the first large scale maps were surveyed.

Today it lies in the grounds of a private dwelling and is used as a store.
