The Bristile Kilns in Belmont are the largest cluster of beehive kilns and associated stacks in Australia. Although of a standard design for c.1920s to 1950s, the kilns are becoming an increasingly rare industrial structure in Australia. The place is a landmark feature of the City of Belmont and the eight brick beehive kilns are an unusual and unique built form and the five tall brick chimneys dominate the local landscape.The City of Belmont wish to demolish these structures for a road widening that is part of a current subdivision and urban renewal project. On the State Register and demonstrating high heritage values, these structures should not be destroyed. The National Trust of Australia (WA) has offered to negotiate with the different parties and to take the vesting of the place if all the structures are conserved.along the Walk and Cycle path around the south and east banks of the Swan River in the City of Belmont
