Description
Robin a Tiptoe Farmhouse is a farmhouse dated 1769, although it likely represents a remodelling of an earlier 17th-century building. The structure is made of well-coursed ironstone rubble and features a Swithland slate roof. It is two storeys high with attics and consists of a main block with three bays. The central doorway is framed by a stone architrave, while the outer bays have three-light straight-chamfered stone mullioned windows, all adorned with ornate key stones. The upper central window is a two-light version, similar in style, but the outer windows are an earlier design with three-light ovolo moulded mullions. There are two hipped gabled dormers and an ashlar sill band. A shield above the doorway displays the date in Roman numerals. The gables are coped with moulded kneelers, and there are brick stacks at the gable ends. To the left, there is a lower bay with a doorway and a two-light casement window beneath a cat-slide dormer.
