Description
The Old Malthouse is a barn that has been converted into a malthouse and later into domestic accommodation. It likely dates from the 17th century and has undergone significant alterations in the mid-19th century and late 20th century. The structure is timber framed but is now mostly covered with red brick and features plain tile roofs. The building is a long range on two levels, oriented from north-east to south-west, with two paired two-storey gabled projections at the north-east end and a single gabled projection at the south-west end that forms the maltings.
The external framing is fragmentary, visible at the north-east gable end and back wall, with square panelling. The front has four blind pointed openings that have been fitted with 20th-century windows. Notable features include a toothed eaves cornice and a tapering brick stack in the roof slope, which was rebuilt in the late 20th century. At the rear, the gabled projections have round-headed cast-iron casements with Gothic tracery on the first floor, and there is a bracket for a former hoist above the right-hand window in the paired gabled projection.
