Description
The Old Malthouse is a house dating from the mid to late 17th century, with a section on the left that was remodeled in the 1920s. It is constructed of coursed limestone rubble and features a gabled stone slate roof with end stacks that have round stone ashlar shafts. The building has a two-unit plan that was extended in the 1920s to create a four-window range.
Notable architectural features include an early 16th-century arched hollow-chamfered doorway, a small one-light window set in an old frame, and a two-light window with hollow-chamfered stone jambs. On the first floor, there are hood moulds over early 16th-century two-light round-headed and hollow-chamfered windows, as well as a similar one-light window in a gabled half dormer. The 1920s extension to the left includes a 20th-century door in a gabled stone porch, a canted bay window, and another gabled half-dormer.
Inside, the house features 17th-century chamfered beams and a two-bay butt-purlin roof, along with winder stairs next to a remodeled open fireplace.
