The Maltings, Industrial malting complex in Mittagong, Australia.

The Maltings is an industrial complex comprising three large brick buildings positioned along the Main Southern Railway and beside Nattai Creek. The structures date from the late 1800s and were purpose-built for processing grain into malt for brewing.

The Malting Company of New South Wales bought land here in 1898 and completed the first malthouse in 1899, supplying malt to breweries across the state. Tooth & Co. took over in 1905 and built a second malthouse in 1906; a third, across Nattai Creek, began operating in 1916. Fires in 1942, 1969 and 1980 progressively closed the malthouses, and the site was put up for sale in 1981.

The site's name comes from the malting trade: barley was steeped, germinated and kiln-dried here to supply breweries across New South Wales. Tooth & Co., the Sydney brewer, bought the works in 1905 and ran it until 1981, when the holdings were put up for sale. The complex is listed as a local council heritage item.

The site is currently not open to visitors as a hotel developer pursues plans to convert it into a mixed-use facility. You can view the impressive red brick buildings and their location beside the historic railway line from the exterior.

A light rail and pedestrian bridge once crossed Nattai Creek to link Malthouses No. 1 and 2 with No. 3. After the 1942 fire, Malthouse 3 kept producing while No. 1 was repaired within a year and No. 2 was rebuilt, not returning to production until 1953.
