This one (oast house?) is at Dalham, near Newmarket. I do not know when it was last used. It is by the road and looks fascinating. I have no idea what it is used for now.
As you will see in the comment from Chris below there are differences between maltings and oast houses. I have changed the text as a result of the feedback from Chris.

Dear Roger,
There is a difference between "Maltings" and an "Oast House"; the former for producing malt from barley and the latter for drying hops. Both of course for beer making!

Thanks Chris. I guess the one in Dalham is an oast house then.
