The new gas production area has now been cleaned and recorded. The area appears to be comprised of three phases of flues and two phases of a circular feature possible a furnace/boiler room.

The flues consist of a central flue which truncates an earlier flue. This central flue has a stepped box possible a stoking chamber. This flue has a direct relationship with the main bank of kilns. There is a flue to the west that is very similar to the central flue. It is has been truncated at some point, therefore it difficult to see a direct relationship with kilns.
