Abstract: |
A level 3 historic building survey was conducted on a Category C(s) listed former double-kiln malting building prior to its demolition. A demolition watching brief was also carried out to record the building as it was taken down. The building occupied a rectangular footprint measuring 21.5 by 11.5m. The principal features on the ground floor were a pair of brick-built kilns that supplied heat and smoke to the second floor via smoke hoods. The first floor contained baffles above the kiln for diffusing heat and smoke to the hoods which in turn vented the malting floor. The drying malt was turned by an electric rotating plough that traversed the length of the building on a steel rack. The original rubble-built walls of the structure date to the late 19th century. The building was re-fitted during the early 20th century to accommodate the structural composite steelwork that carried the roof and the smoke hoods. Historical records show the building was constructed during the late 19th century and it was part of a much larger range of distillery buildings. B Glendinning 2012 |
