Bax Farmhouse

Bax Farmhouse is a house dating from the 15th century and 1567. It features a timber frame with exposed close-studding and plaster infill, and has been underbuilt and extended with red brick, as well as chequered flint and ragstone. The building has plain tiled roofs and is designed in an L-plan.

On the north front, the house has two storeys on a plinth, with a ragstone and flint ground floor, a moulded brick string course, and a close-studded first floor. The hipped roof has offset stacks at the left end and an octagonal stack at the right end. There is a wooden oriel window with transomed lights and blocked side lights on the left side of the first floor, and a shallow oriel on the right. The ground floor features a seven-light wooden mullioned window with a brick surround on the left and a three-light wooden mullioned window on the right. A plank and muntin door is located to the centre right, framed by moulded brick surrounds, with a stone plaque above the door dated 1567.

The south front is constructed of red brick in English bond, with storeys on a plinth, a string course, and a crowstep gable. Each floor has a three-light brick mullioned window with a dripmould.

The east front has two storeys on a plinth, with a ground floor of red brick and ragstone and flint chequered work, and a close-studded first floor. There are two large projecting stacks, offset and rising to brick diagonal set flues, with two on the left and three on the right. A plank and muntin door is set in a recessed entry between the two stacks.
