Description
The pigeon cote located approximately 20 metres east of Bell Hall is likely from the early 18th century, with some later additions and alterations. It is constructed of pinkish-orange brick and features a corrugated-iron roof. The building is two storeys high and consists of a single bay.
On the ground floor, there is an entrance on the south facade, which is a plank door set under a flat arch made of rubbed brick. There is also a blocked entrance on the west side, which is under an elliptical arch. The first floor has a 6-pane window on the east facade, along with pigeon openings and a ledge below that is within a blocked pitching opening. The west gable has blocked pigeon openings and tumbled-in brickwork. A weathercock is present on the east gable, although the building was obscured by creeper during the last survey.
