The Malthouse

The Malthouse is a detached house dating from the 17th century, located on Church Street in Stapleford. The building features a rendered exterior and a half-hipped thatched roof with brick stacks. It is a single storey with an attic and has three windows, which are casements. There is a three-panelled door in a thatched porch on the right side, along with two-light and three-light recessed chamfered mullioned casements that have hoodmoulds. To the left, there is a blocked door with an inserted two-light casement and a two-light mullioned casement.

In the attic, there are two three-light recessed chamfered mullioned casements with hoodmoulds in eyebrow dormers on the left, and a dormer with a fixed window on the right. Attached to the right is a single storey cob extension, which may have been a former schoolroom, featuring several small fixed windows and two dormers. The left side of the building has a three-light leaded casement on the first floor, while the right side has a 20th-century garage door.

At the rear, there is a lean-to extension on the left and a 17th-century section on the right made of banded flint and limestone, which retains a two-light mullioned casement and a two-light casement, along with two dormers that have casements. The interior was not accessible during the survey in August 1985, but it is reported to have chamfered beams with run-out stops, an open fireplace with a cambered lintel and stone jambs, and a chamfered door lintel between the 17th-century northern build and the later 17th-century central build.
