It's a good question Robin. Maybe because, on such a steep hillside, with thick scree, it'd be easy to chavel into it a few metres to build a lime kiln with a reasonable vertical height twixt air inlet and chimney to give a good updraught? The possibility of all necessary consumables being nearby may have influenced positioning. And it'd be relatively easy to get the product downhill to the main pastures.
All of which is pure conjecture on my part, I'm afraid.
I'm hoping David Johnson will be able to point us in the right direction.
