Robin Hood Malt Kiln is indicated on an 1854 O.S. map of the Huddersfield area that was based on surveying done in the years 1848 to 1850. The name seems to have referred to a rectangular building squeezed in between the Calder, immediately to the west, and Wakefield Road immeditely to the east, and thus located immediately west of Nun Bank Wood (formerly Kirklees Wood) and about 50 m. north of the railroad bridge over the Calder. The 1894 O.S. map of the area has the legend "Robin Hood Malt Kiln" positioned in Nun Bank Wood, immediately east of Wakefield Road, thus making it unclear if the name was meant to apply to the building close to the Calder.

Robin Hood Malt Kiln.

By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2014-10-21. Revised by Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2019-06-08.

Robin Hood Malt Kiln is indicated on an 1854 O.S. map of the Huddersfield area that was based on surveying done in the years 1848 to 1850. The name seems to have referred to a rectangular building squeezed in between the Calder, immediately to the west, and Wakefield Road immeditely to the east, and thus located immediately west of Nun Bank Wood (formerly Kirklees Wood) and about 50 m. north of the railroad bridge over the Calder. The 1894 O.S. map of the area has the legend "Robin Hood Malt Kiln" positioned in Nun Bank Wood, immediately east of Wakefield Road, thus making it unclear if the name was meant to apply to the building close to the Calder. The kiln is mentioned as an existing structure in a 1903 lease.[1] The name Robin Hood Malt Kiln is not indicated on any of the later 6" O.S. maps of the area online at NLS,[2] though the buidling is shown at least as late as 1948. It was in all events located very close to Robin Hood's Grave and Robin Hood's Cottage. I do not believe it was identical with the latter.

The Robin Hood Malt Kiln is not identical with the 17th cent. Malthouse located elsewhere on the Kirklees estate.[3]
