Charlestown limestone : ウィキペディア英語版 | Charlestown limestone Charlestown Limestone was quarried in Charlestown, Fife, Scotland. The limestone was fired in the kilns of the neighbouring village Limekilns and ship from here along the Scottish east coast. The limestone in this area produced lime of such a high quality that the lime was also exported as far afield as Canada. These limestone workings have entrances which are situated along a quarry face, opposite the nearby water front and lead into sloping roads which lead to what was the working face. Limestsone removal was largely halted by 1937, although limestone was being quarried until 1957.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 title=Scotland's Places )〕 During the second world war, production was halted to avoid the glow from the kilns providing a fixed geographical reference point for enemy pilots. ==References==
