Description
Robin House is a house, now used as offices, that dates back to 1820 and was refurbished in 1991. It features rendered rubble with ashlar dressings, gable stacks, and an interlocking tile roof. The building has a double-depth plan and is designed in the late Georgian style. It stands two storeys tall with a five-window range. The symmetrical front has lower side wings marked by pilasters leading to a cornice and parapet. The central doorway includes a narrow door with a pediment supported by brackets and a fanlight above. The ground-level windows are flat-headed with architraves and cornices on consoles, featuring 10/10-pane sashes with fine bars in flush boxes. The first-floor windows are smaller, with 8/8-pane replacement sashes and semicircular headed sashes in the wings. There is a boot scraper to the right of the entrance. Inside, the building has a central hall and a rear open-well stair, along with a reeded architrave and roundels around the front door.
