This is an eye-level, medium shot of a weathered wooden sign titled "Dalham Malt Kiln." The sign is rectangular, set in a dark wooden frame, with a lighter informational panel affixed to its center. Stainless steel rivets secure the panel to the frame. The informational panel provides historical context: The Dalham Malt Kiln was used to convert grain into malt for brewing and distilling. The sign notes an inscription on a handmade brick reading "J.D 1846" but indicates the kiln may have existed as early as 1820, owned by William Ruffell, who also owned the nearby Stores Hill windmill. Trade directories indicate the kiln was in operation until the mid-1870s, with the last entry mentioning George Moore, a farmer, master, and miller. The panel also mentions a 1907 copy of "West Suffolk Illustrated" in Bury St Edmunds Record Office that includes a map and photograph of the kiln and its attached building. The building, which no longer stands, had a low-pitched slate roof and was reportedly standing as late as 1955 when the road into the village was widened. A black and white image of a 1903 postcard of the Dalham Malt Kiln is displayed. The sign bears a QR code labeled "Scan here for more Malt Kiln information." The bottom of the sign states that the National Heritage List for England lists the kiln with entry number 1286382, Grade II, first listed on June 26, 1984, privately owned and maintained, and funded by Dalham Parish Council with locality funding support from West Suffolk District Council. The background consists of lush green grass, indicating the sign is likely located in an outdoor area.
