Graiglas Limekilns is a post-medieval and modern industrial site located in Ceredigion, Wales, comprising lime-burning installations that served the local agricultural and construction industries. The kilns date from the post-medieval period through to the modern era, reflecting the sustained demand for lime in Welsh rural communities for land improvement and building work. The site retains physical evidence of lime-burning technology characteristic of its period, including the kiln structures themselves which represent important surviving examples of this common but often ephemeral industrial activity. As a scheduled ancient monument under Cadw's protection, the site contributes to understanding the material economy and industrial heritage of post-medieval Ceredigion.
