Notes
  • Photo caption pages include site plan.
  • Significance: The lime kiln is significant for its important role in the expansion of the Packer farm operations, and as an extant example of a traditional manufacturing process. Apparently, Kinley D. Packer built the kiln in the early twentieth century to supply not only the Packer built the kiln in the early 20th century to supply not only the Packer farm with lime, but also to supply others. The lime was spread on the fields prior to planting, and was used as a component in mortar. The integrity of the lime kiln is fair; the masonry and inner chamber are intact, but the stove apron has been destroyed. It is unclear if there were any other lime kilns in the vicinity of the Packer farm.
