History

The maltings formed part of a complex of buildings at the Nags Head, and was probably built c1860 (perhaps when the public house was remodelled). A brewhouse associated with it has since been demolished. It is now used as a shop and warehouse.

Exterior

Flat arched heads to lower windows to either side, the upper windows below the eaves. Inserted doorways to lower left hand side. Malt drying kiln to rear is square in plan, with hipped slate roof terminating in central louvred vent. Openings in kiln mostly post-date its operation.

Interior

Kiln said to retain its perforated tiled drying floor; cast iron columns support upper storey in main range.
