Description
The building is a malthouse located immediately southwest of Church End House in Frampton on Severn, dating from the 18th century and incorporating parts of three earlier outbuildings. It is constructed of brick with a tile roof featuring kneelers and coping at the gable ends. The structure has an L-shaped plan, consisting of two storeys with a loft. Each long side is adorned with two gabled dormers that rise from the eaves. The northeast side has a brick dentil eaves cornice and a stepped two-brick string course. There are four blocked segmental-headed windows on the northeast elevation and a similar single window on the opposite side.
The gable end facing the road features segmental-headed loading doors at both the first and attic floor levels, along with a 20th-century double-width opening at ground floor level. There is a blocked doorway and window to the right in the southwest wing, which contains an 18th-century brick malt kiln. This kiln shows signs of minor refurbishments and alterations from the 19th century, and about half of the late 18th to early 19th-century perforated kiln tiles remain on the drying floor. Adjacent to the internal wall that separates the growing floor range from the southwest wing is part of the stone steep where barley was soaked.
The chute used to transfer malt from the drying floor back into the growing floor range at first floor level is still intact and retains evidence of a plaster-like surface that waterproofed the floor against damp grain. The southernmost tie-beam appears to be made from a ship's mast. The growing-floor range consists of six bays and features a fine raised-cruck roof structure that may predate the 18th century. The roof over the malt kiln is also from the 18th century and shows remnants of a ventilation louvre that was located over the center of the kiln. According to the Listed Building Database, this is one of only two 18th-century malt kilns recorded in Gloucestershire, and few kilns of this type are known nationally.
