We have lots of oast houses in the UK, especially in the southeastern regions.
Quote:
An oast, oast house or hop kiln is a building designed for kilning (drying) hops as part of the brewing process. They can be found in most hop-growing (and former hop-growing) areas and are often good examples of vernacular architecture. Many redundant oasts have been converted into houses.

They're lovely buildings.
