Description
The Malthouse is a house dating from the late 17th century. It is constructed of squared coursed limestone with a stone slate roof and has flanking brick stacks. The building has two storeys and cellars, featuring four bays. The doorway, located in the second bay from the right, has a six-panel door, a rectangular fanlight, and a 19th-century gabled timber hood supported by brackets. The windows are two-light wood mullioned and transomed, set in plain stone frames. There is a quoin stone inscribed with "AAC/1698" on the rear ground floor. The interior has been remodelled in the left bay during the 19th century.
