Listed as aprt of an unusual C19 terrace, of group value with Castell Coch, and Exmoor House.
Group Description
Castle Coch, Exmoor House, and The Malt House, form an unusual terrace with consistent later C19 detail with a slight Arts and Crafts tinge, i.e. in the use of small red clay tiles and vernacular casement windows. It may be an alteration of c1880 of an earlier range.
