Abstract:		 In September 2008 Archaeological Solutions carried out an historic building appraisal of the grade II listed Central Malting, New Road, Ware, Hertfordhsire to inform proposals to convert the building into twelve new residential units. The building is one of three parallel maltings of early 19th century date. The appraisal found that the buildin remains in a fairly good state of perervation with some original features intact, though the original malting floors were removed in the 1980s to accommodate a motor vehicle workshop. However, the three discrete sections which correspond with the malting process may still be discerned: steeping of grain, germination of barley and drying of the resultant malt. These sections are structurally different, accommodting the needs of the mlting process through the use of timber and iron. A number of original features were found to survive, most notably the cowls and some of the underlying kiln structure, along with original windows, timbers, trusses and two cast iron stanchions. Many of the timbers were found to hve Baltic bracking marks. The appraisal found that the proposed development would have a fairly light impact upon the structure if sympathetically designed, and could be beneficial by removing 20th century additions. However one area of possible impact to the west may affect the remaining cast iron stanchions and timbers retaining the best Baltic marking.
