Description
The North Malt Warehouse in Newark on Trent is a maltings building, now used as a warehouse, dating from around 1870, with alterations made in the mid-20th century. It was built for brewer John Hole and features mass concrete construction with an external render and hipped roofs covered in Welsh slate. The building stands three storeys tall and has a regular arrangement of windows, including segment-headed windows. The river front is divided into six hipped bays and has a total of 18 windows, with eight on the front flanked by single loft doors, and four additional windows on either side. The second and ground floors have similar window arrangements, with a door added on the ground floor between the two left windows.
At the rear, there are three-storey kilns at each end that align with the building's face. The fenestration has been altered by the addition of large double doors at either end of the central block, with a large pair of double doors on either side. The second floor features a central gabled hoist canopy. The south end includes a kiln to the left with a blank first floor and six windows above and below, while the range to the right has six windows on each floor. The north end mirrors this arrangement. Inside, a large section of the floors has been removed and replaced with tall square reinforced concrete columns, while the remaining floors are supported by iron columns. The kiln spaces are still intact. This building is noted as an early example of mass concrete construction.
