Description
The pigeon cote, dating from the early 19th century, features a brick base and timber upper walls, topped with a slate roof that has pierced decorated bargeboards and a pendent finial. This single-storey structure has a door located in the gable wall. The central planked door is externally clad with branches, reflecting the Rustic style. The wooden walls of the cote are also adorned with Rustic wooden panels. Above the door, there are four horizontal perches that serve as thresholds for the entrance to the pigeon loft inside.
