This flame observation port in the chimney is visible from the front of the kiln. Moraig watches the flames here and in the chamber to determine when to stoke. She also refers to a pyrometer but “is not wedded to it”.

Inside the kiln. Sun is shining through the right hand side stoking ports, illuminating bright patches on the floor.
