Description
The Robin Hood Public House is a late 18th-century building that was refronted in the late 19th century. It features a limestone ashlar and render exterior with a pantile hipped roof and has a double-depth plan. The structure is two storeys high and has a one-window range. The ground floor is made of ashlar and is divided by pilasters between the left-hand door and a central plate-glass window. It includes an impost band, moulding to the fascia, first-floor quoins, and a moulded parapet. The entrance has a semicircular-arched doorway with a leaded overlight and a swan's neck transom, leading to a half-glazed door. There is also a segmental arched window with a key, and on the first floor, there are semicircular-arched mullion and transom windows with a weathered top. The interior has not been inspected. Additionally, there are attached front area railings, contributing to the character of this vigorous late 19th-century public house front.
