Summary: "Repton and its Neighbourhood: A Descriptive Guide of the Archæology, &c., of the District" by F. C. Hipkins is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This guide explores the rich heritage and archaeological significance of Repton, a village in Derbyshire, England.

At the start of the narrative, the author explains the impetus behind this revised edition of his previous work.
