Farmhouse, probably rebuilt in late C18 to early C19. The site is close to the Norman motte and the parish church. The farm formed part of the estate of the Haywards of Fletherhill, passing to the Popkins family and thence in the late C18 to Sir Watkin Lewes, Lord Mayor of London. Fenton described the farm in 1811, then owned by Lady Lewes, as 'one of the largest tenements in the county and one of the best conditioned'. The Rudbaxton Tithe map of 1845 shows Great Rudbaxton as a farm of some 436 acres(176.58 hectares) occupied by George Thomas and owned by John Harding Harries who owned a total of 896 acres(362.88hectares) in nine holdings in the community. Other tenants or occupants recorded include: Charles Gibbon 1786, James Llewellin 1834, James Williams 1904 and Mrs Eliza Williams 1926.
