Description
The building is a disused granary and maltings from the 18th century, standing two storeys tall. It features a rendered exterior over timber framing with brick infill. There is a one-and-a-half storey lean-to extension made of flint rubble along the west side. At the south end, the former kiln is constructed of red brick, adorned with a dentil cornice and topped with a hipped roof. The roofs are covered with pantiles, and there are various small window openings. This structure is included for its group value.
