Description
The site first functioned as a mill, producing linen thread from flax. After 90 years, the flax industry declined and the site was converted into a maltings, producing malt for the brewing industry for another 90 years. The site fell into disrepair after the maltings closed in 1987 but is now being prepared for its third century of use.
The restoration of the 1797 Grade I Listed Main Mill and 1898 Grade II Listed Kiln will create a visitor destination and learning centre and café facility on the ground floor with the upper 4 floors being converted to create modern commercial office space.
The offices are to retain a number of period features reflecting the building's industrial heritage, whilst providing a modern working environment for the 21st Century.
The accommodation has been restored with sustainability at the forefront and includes features such as natural ventilation, a low carbon energy heat source and excellent natural lighting.
Access to the offices will be afforded via personnel lift access from the impressive fully refurbished original Kiln area which serves as the main entrance.
