Description
The Pigeoncote at The Manor House is a late 17th-century structure that also includes an adjoining stable. It is built of brick and features a steeply pitched pantile roof. The building has plain and dentillated eaves, along with three stepped coped gables that have kneelers. It consists of two storeys and has two main bays plus a single bay.
The pigeoncote section has a central door on the south side, flanked by single slatted openings. The stable to the right also has a door, and all these openings have segmental heads. Above the doors, there are two rectangular openings that contain two tiers of pigeonholes. The east gable features a blocked opening above, while the west gable has a door with timber jambs and a segmental head above it.
