Bass Maltings, Sleaford, Grade II* listed malt house complex in Sleaford, England

The Bass Maltings features eight red brick pavilions spanning 1000 feet with a central square tower and a slender industrial chimney.

Built between 1892 and 1905 for Bass, Ratcliff and Gretton of Burton on Trent, this industrial site became the largest maltings complex outside Burton upon Trent.

The maltings complex represents a period of agricultural and industrial expansion in Lincolnshire when the region produced substantial quantities of barley for brewing.

Two preserved Robey engines from the original malting process are now displayed in museums, providing insight into the industrial methods of the period.

The building sustained damage from fires in 1969 and 1976, which affected three malthouses and the central tower, leading to its current partially deteriorated state.
