Burghead Maltings
Location type
WorksName and dates
Burghead Maltings (1968-)Served by the Hopeman Branch (Highland Railway).
Description
These maltings were opened to the north of Burghead [2nd]. They were rail served and ensured the survival of the Hopeman Branch (Highland Railway) from Alves which had closed to Burghead [1st] in 1966, the Hopeman extension having closed in 1957, save a short siding. This siding was extended north through Burghead [2nd] station, with a loop, to the maltings.
The line was cut back to south of Burghead [2nd] in the 1990s and the former railway approach to the maltings is now a road.
