Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Q-pits are kiln sites which were dug for the production of White coal prior to the Industrial Revolution when white coal was largely superseded by the use of coke. White coal produced in Q-pits was largely used in the smelting of lead from about 1550 to 1750, when a process was diescovered that used coal. The large sections of white coal had previously been mixed with charcoal to give the right temperature, as charcoal alone was too hot and would have volatilised the lead. Some evidence exists to suggest that some had a secondary use in the charking of coal into coke. Many Q-pits were located in Deciduous woodlands and as such they are an important landscape feature indicating both previous industrial activity and the presence of a wood at the site or nearby. They are often found in association with Saw pits.
