The vast semi-derelict Grade II* listed maltings dominate the skyline approaching Sleaford from the south http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/254319, opened in 1905 they are an impressive feat of engineering by any standard. A massive four-storey central tower is flanked by eight detached pavilions giving a frontage of nearly 1,000 feet. In 2005 a £55 million restoration project was launched by Prince Charles and the Phoenix Trust .... one hundred years after they opened.
