Robinson’s House on High Street Maldon is unusual architecture for Maldon as this gothic style is not often seen in a house in central Victoria. It is believed that the house was built in 1864.

The house is a beautiful example of the historic buildings in Maldon and each building has its own character.

Robinson’s House stands out in the morning light as you walk or drive down High Street.

The Penny School situated on Church Street Maldon is one of our favourite buildings in town.

The school was called the Penny School because that was the cost of attendance at the school.

The 1856 Penny School, built of stone, brick and weatherboard as the Church of England Denominational School No.413, overlooks Maldon in Church Street. It was acquired by the National Trust in 1979. It was sold by The National Trust to a private buyer in 2014.
