Description
The Malthouse at Packington Hall Farm, built around 1840, is a two-storey structure with a basement, constructed from red brick and topped with a plain tile roof. It features a single brick coped gable with kneelers, a brick plinth, and dentilated eaves. The building has six bays and a small lean-to on the west side.
The north front displays a sequence of features from left to right: a plank door accessed by a flight of breeze block steps, a basement plank door with a two-light window above, an inserted window, and three shuttered basement openings. Above these, there are two two-light windows and a plank door, followed by a kiln with a plank door and a shuttered opening. The first floor includes three loft doors with single shuttered openings in between, and a two-light window for the kiln.
Inside, the storage basement has a brick floor supported by a central row of cast iron columns and crossbeams. Above this is a drying floor and a storage loft. The roof trusses feature a tie beam with a king post and diagonal struts. An internal hoist extends through three floors, and the kiln to the west has a perforated tile floor and an internal venting hood.
