A road sign greets visitors to Beachville as they head east on Beachville Road (County Road 9). The sign acknowledges the village’s title as “The Lime Capital.” Given that the limestone industry is one of the oldest in Oxford County and that the area’s quarries have supplied over 800,000 tons of limestone to market a year, it is well-earned.
