Re: Baird's Malthouse 17-20 Sydney Buildings
With reference to the malthouse at this property, it would appear that the property had not existed before the middle of the 19th century.
The Post Office Directories do not register the property earlier than 1880. From 1906-1916 the property appears to have been in joint hands.
1880-1905 Chandler and Mawes of Broad Quay Bath
1906-1913 Mawes and Tanner of Broad Quay Bath
1905-1916 H J D Blke of 17 Sydney Buildings, Bath
1914-1916 Mr. E Tucker of Broad Quay, Bath
1917-1931 Tucker & Blake [combination of above] of Sydney Buildings & Broad Quay, Bath
1933-1972 Hugh Baird & Sons Ltd of Sydney Buildings and Broad Quay
E Tucker may have passed on his business to M Tucker who alongside the large Broad Quay malthouse ran an animal feed and forage warehouse.
Hugh Baird & Son in taking over the site from Tucker & Blake in1933 acquired not only the Sydney Buildings site but a large malthouse on a site in Broad Quay presently occupied by Carpenter House. This building may have been the main address for the owners giving their address as Broad Quay as far back as 1880.
Apparently in 1972 shortly before the maltings closed a short cine film was made of the building and in particular the gas engine.
