Malt Kiln House

Malt Kiln House is a house that likely dates from the early 17th century or earlier, with a 19th-century extension that is not included in the listing. The structure features a cruck frame with brick cladding and a corrugated iron cover over a thatched roof. It stands two storeys high and has two bays, with a chimney stack on the front of the left gable and another at the right end, which is part of the extension. The current doors are located in the right bay and in the left gable. On the ground floor of the left bay, there is a 2-light casement window that replaces an earlier arched entrance; the curved oak lintel from that entrance remains but is concealed. The first floor has three 2-light windows, with the outer ones being casements. The eaves are boxed, and the gable eaves are boarded.

Inside, there is a full cruck truss in the centre and another at the right end, featuring spurs to the walls, struts to the tie beams, and windbraces. On the ground floor, only the blades of the right cruck remain, but the cruck truss between the bays retains its full frame of four posts, with a rail in the centre panel and doorways on each side, both topped with Tudor-arch shaped lintels. The left bay includes a pantry, now used as a bathroom, which is accessed from the right bay; its walls are constructed with a box frame and wattle-and-daub infill. The right bay contains two chamfered and stopped bridging beams, likely from the 18th century, and a fire window.
