Description
Gleneagles Brewery and Maltings is a former maltings building constructed between 1896 and 1897, designed by Russell and Spence. It is a four-storey, rectangular structure with a plan measuring three by twelve bays, built from rubble and once part of a larger brewery complex. Attached to the southeast are 20th century brick and concrete buildings, which are not included in the listing.
The building features small glazed windows on the ground and third floors, while the first and second malt floors have larger louvered windows. The lower sections of the first and second floors contain small panes, and the third floor windows are fitted with casement shutters. The roofs are gabled and covered with slate. Additionally, there are cast iron tie-plates at the second floor.
The interior was not inspected in 2017, but photographs from that year reveal two rows of circular cast iron columns running lengthwise, supporting steel beams on each floor. The ground, first, and second floors are made of concrete, while the third and attic floors have timber tongue and groove flooring supported by timber cross beams. Access to the upper levels is provided by dogleg stairs located at the southeast and southwest corners of the building.
