Newparks Lime Kilns is a group of lime kilns situated approximately 120 metres north-north-east of Newparks in Stirlingshire, Scotland. The kilns represent industrial activity associated with lime production, a process essential to agriculture and construction in the early modern and modern periods. Lime kilns of this type typically date from the seventeenth century onwards, though many were expanded and rebuilt throughout the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries as demand for lime increased. The physical remains would have comprised the characteristic stone-built structures used to heat limestone and shell to produce quicklime for fertilising land and mortar for building purposes.
