This is the fairy land. O spite of spites,
We talk with goblins, owls, and sprites!
If we obey them not, this will ensue:
They'll suck our breath, or pinch us black and blue.

It's actually a bit large to be a fairy door - it's big enough to be visible from the street. Maybe it belongs to a goblin or a gnome.
Come away, O human child!
To the waters and the wild
With a faery hand in hand,
For the world's more full of weeping
than you can understand.
