La Fornace

Dear Al,
Thanks to Antonio we've solved the "fornace" mystery and have added another footnote:-
[3] “La fornace” “The Kiln” is the house that lies on the right of the road leading to the Monastery, at the fork between the road that goes towards Palena and the lane that goes to the Monastery.
About 70 – 80 years ago, there was a small factory that built tiles and bricks there. The owner was Germana Piccone’s father.
The bricks and tiles were made by firing clay in a kiln, hence the name “La fornace” “The Kiln”.
Nowadays that part of the land itself is called “The Kiln” “La fornace”.
So I was right to have queried the word and my choices were good too - but I think Kiln is the best - even if it is not there any longer!
I wonder if the Romans had a kiln in that area too - maybe we'll need to do some digging to find out??
Keep on getting better,
Love
Marion Porreca.
