Description

The Malt House is a terraced house that may have originally been two houses with two windows each and one single-bay house, although the original division is unclear. It features a whitewashed roughcast exterior with a roof covered in red pantiles and crested ridge tiles. The ground floor has a projecting section with a red tiled pentice roof.

The building is two storeys high and has five pairs of upper casement windows that slightly break the eaves, each with catslide roofs. The ground floor features a French window followed by a slightly projected four-light window with long lights. Next, there is a long six-bay timber-framed passage porch that extends to the pavement line, topped with plain tiles and crested ridge tiles. The porch has a gable with open single-bay sides and a diagonally-boarded door, along with five enclosed sides that include shouldered-headed lights.

To the right of the porch, there is a single-light window, followed by a final section with another four-light window with long lights that is also slightly projected. The northern end of the building has a pair of casement windows on the first floor and a slit window in the gable. There are extensive rear additions to the property. The interior was not available for inspection during the last survey in December 1999.

The Malt House, along with Castle Coch and Exmoor House, forms an unusual terrace that showcases consistent later 19th-century details with a slight Arts and Crafts influence, including the use of small red clay tiles and vernacular casement windows. It is believed to be an alteration from around 1880 of an earlier range.
