Description
Pigeoncote at Dovecote Farm is an early 17th-century structure. It is a cylindrical building with a conical tiled roof, constructed from coursed rubble and topped with a row of bricks. A wooden lintel frames the entrance on the north-west side, above which are pigeon holes, some supported by later brick additions. A ledge runs just below the eaves. The interior features both stone and brick nesting boxes, along with pantiles.
