Its historical significance is further emphasized by its listing status as IoE 409657. The photograph beautifully captures the rustic charm and robustness of this brick structure set against the serene countryside backdrop. The intricate details of the kiln's construction are evident in every concrete slab and brick that make up its sturdy walls.
