Full Description

This maltings complex, built probably between 1828 and 1840, is a good example of the scale and methods of production common in the early-mid nineteenth century. The works were built by John Perkins, a local man with diverse business interests, including water transport and processing of bulk items such as corn, coal and feed cake. The site lies adjacent to the navigable River Welland, and it is likely that raw materials and products were transported by river. The buildings are architecturally impressive, with a street frontage made up of offices, a warehouse and a house executed in the Tudor Gothic style, and the works buildings (PRN 34941) being well-built and of substantial size. {1}{2} These buildings are the former offices to the maltings complex to the rear (PRN 34941). They were built c. 1850 in coursed squared limestone rubble with ashlar dressings and Collyweston slate roof, and are built in the Tudor Gothic style. For the full description and the legal address of this listed building please refer to the appropriate List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest. {3}
