Lime Kiln Basin
Lime Kiln Basin
Lime Kiln Basin is a canal feature on the Trent and Mersey Canal located at Stone, in Staffordshire, England.
Situated near Lime Kiln Lock (Lock 30), the basin includes a winding hole — a designated turning point that allows narrowboats to reverse direction on the canal.
It lies just below a stretch of visitor moorings at Stone and is positioned between the Meaford flight of locks to the north and the continuing canal route southward.
The basin takes its name from the lime kilns historically associated with this stretch of the waterway, reflecting the industrial heritage common to many points along the Trent and Mersey Canal.
