The Maltsters' Arms has been demolished. It's listed in the 1910 Woodbridge Rate book as being in Brewer's Lane; this was an older name for Station Road.
The 1904 Woodbridge licensing records show that the Maltsters' Arms's beerhouse license was issued in 1863. Those same records tell us that the pub closed in 1963.
