Abandoned Kiln

There's intrigue in this homemade, and forgotten, old kiln hidden in the weeds.  What was its purpose?  Who knew the technique of constructing a usable kiln?  Who was the potter who lived in rural Iowa?  Might his/her pottery still exist?

Questions.

Is it located near you? Maybe, with some "digging" you might "unearth" some information.

Believe me, there's nothing I would enjoy more, but trespassing laws prohibit any curiosities.

I see. One cannot set foot on the property. What about local historian or library?

Good idea, Tall Cottage. Maybe even the Internet. Might just have to do some research. Ta-ta. Gypsy
