Abstract: |
In July 2011 and April 2012, Archaeological Solutions Limited (AS) carried out a programme of historic building recording and monitoring and recording at The Maltings, Station Road, Newport, Essex (NGR TL 5220 3362). The recording was commissioned by Land Charter Homes Ltd to comply with a planning condition on approval to convert and alter the buildings on the site to residential and office use (UTT/1405/09). Three structures included a malting of c.1853, an associated stable or store, and a goods warehouse constructed to transport malt from the site by railway. Technical analysis revealed the malting to be of fairly conventional form and layout, though with unusual kiln flues. Though the internal elements have largely been obliterated by past conversion to offices, the external composition and surviving features allow the layout to be reconstructed in outline, comprising three central malting floors with flanking, half-timbered steeping and storage areas. The associated buildings were constructed in plain style as simple storage sheds, but have similarly been remodelled comprehensively. |
