North Central Maltings

North Central Maltings is a circa 1840s malting, remodelled in the late 19th century. It is constructed of yellow stock brick, with a Flemish bond at the east end and an English bond at the rebuilt west end. The east end has a lower pantile roof, while the west end has slate roofs. The east end is weatherboarded, featuring a projecting gabled hoist housing. The building has a long rectangular plan.

The main range is three storeys high and nine bays wide, with small, segmentally-headed windows and brick pilasters between. To the left (east) is a weatherboarded section. A large, three-storey kiln is situated on the right (west), featuring a pyramidal slate roof with a rectangular, slate-hung cowl incorporating louvres. Flanking the kiln is a four-storey, three-bay range with a gabled slate canopy over a hoist door to the left, and a lower, two-storey and attic range with a gabled west end to the right (west).

The interior of the kiln contains a superstructure used to lower germinated barley into the kiln. The maltings underwent late 19th century alterations following the abolition of the Malt Tax in 1880.
