Description
The building is a former malthouse located approximately 30 metres east of East Titchberry Farmhouse, likely dating from the second half of the 18th century. It features stone rubble walls and a slate roof that is gabled at the left end and has a rear wing. The structure has an L-shaped plan, with a steeping tank in the north-east corner that extends partly out at the front. The kiln was probably situated next to this tank and was open to the roof above. The building consists of three floors, with the top and bottom floors used as malting floors, operating on the Newark system, while the central floor was used for dressing and storing grain. In the 19th century, a new system was likely introduced, repurposing the upper floor for storage.
The exterior has three storeys and presents a long asymmetrical front with doorways at both the left and right ends. There is a projection for the steeping tank at the left end, which has a slate roof and a small opening. Beyond the right-hand doorway is a window opening, with stone steps to its left leading to a first-floor doorway. To the right of this doorway is a large blocked opening and a smaller one towards the left end. Below the eaves, left of centre, is a loading hatch. The second floor features two wood-framed dormers with hipped slate roofs, and there are two window openings in the right-hand end wall that project to the rear. Inside, the top and bottom floors are covered with gypsum for grain malting purposes.
