The Malt Kiln has dominated the skyline of the eastern end of Louth for many years. Some people
consider it to be an eyesore, but for others it was a valuable source of jobs. In January 2004 its
destruction began. Unfortunately it was not a good candidate for dynamiting, so this process will take
several months.
A giant crane was used to begin the demolition of the Malt Kiln.
