House. C18, altered in C19 and C20. Timber-framed, plastered and weatherboarded, roofed with slate. Main range facing SW with cross-wings at both ends, extending forwards, each with an internal stack. 3 adjacent wings to rear of different widths. 2 storeys. Ground floor, 2 late C19/early C20 splayed bays of casements, with moulded plaster parapets. First floor, 3 late C19/early C20 casements. All the front windows are transomed, with Tudor style heads. Tudor style plaster labels over first-floor windows. A glazed porch occupies the space between the projecting wings, with double half-glazed doors and a balcony over with wrought-iron railing. Low-pitched roofs. The rear elevation is weatherboarded on the ground floor, plastered above. INTERIOR: late C18 stair at rear of entrance hall, with 2 slender turned balusters to each step, and a wreathed and moulded mahogany handrail. No framing is exposed internally, but the main range has a axial beam, and each cross-wing has a transverse beam, all with plaster mouldings. Moulded plaster coving in the ground-floor rooms. The left ground-floor room has an early C19 recessed cupboard, and the right ground-floor room has a recess beside the fireplace with a semi-elliptical arch. HISTORICAL NOTE: this house was recorded as a cottage in 1733, and in Chapman and Andre's map of 1777 it is shown as Marshes. It was enlarged by Richard Woods, surveyor, shortly before 1791, who also enclosed 2« x 9« roods of common, and was then called Maxes. In a sale catalogue of 1901 it was described as Park House, then with 5 acres of garden, and c1970 reverted to the name Maxes. At that time a large extension to the left, including a belvedere, was demolished (shown in a photograph in the owner's possession).
