Limestone would have been transported from surrounding hills to be processed into lime.The Ty Coch Lime Kilns ceased working before 1880.

The Limekiln is listed on a local website but it seems little is known about it and few details are given, easy to view from roadside location.

The Ty Coch Lime Kilns were originally refurbished by Cwmbran Community Council in 1988 and were further refurbished in 2001 as one of the Council's Millennium Year projects.
