What is recorded here

Detached seventeen-bay five-storey malthouse, dated 1881, on a rectangular plan. Now disused. Hipped slate roof on collared timber construction with clay ridge tiles, and cast-iron rainwater goods retaining cast-iron downpipes. Part repointed coursed rubble stone walls with benchmark-inscribed cut-granite flush quoins to corners centred on cast-iron "Pattress" tie plates; rendered surface finish (top floor). Square-headed window openings in camber- or segmental-headed recesses centred on tooled cut-limestone shield date stone ("1881") with red brick block-and-start surrounds framing timber boarded fittings behind wrought iron bars. Set back from line of street with boundary wall to perimeter having rubble stone soldier course coping.
