Abstract:		 In February 2019, historic building recording was undertaken of a range of buildings at The Old Maltings, Bedford Road, Milton Ernest, prior to its demolition for residential redevelopment of the site. The brewery/maltings at Milton Ernest was built between 1803 and 1881, probably around the middle of the 19th century. Prior to this, the site was undeveloped. The brewery/maltings was developed by the Gibbins family of Milton Ernest, remaining in their ownership until at least 1890. The site appears to have continued to function as a brewery/maltings, possibly until the 1930s. During WW2 the site was turned over to light metal fabrication. Before 1979, the north-east range of buildings on the site disappeared: either through accident or deliberate demolition. At this time, the east end of the surviving range appears to have been reconstructed in its present truncated form. During the second half of the 20th century, the remaining buildings appear to have had a variety of light industrial and retail uses. The central part of the range, originally a walled yard, was given an upper storey and flat roof during this period. The survey revealed scant evidence for the original functions of the buildings. It is possible that Building 2 was originally stables and a cart-house, with storage for fodder above. Building 1 is typical of many mid-19th-century industrial buildings, used for a variety of manufacturing processes.
