Description

Dovecote Cottage, formerly listed as The Cottage, is a 17th-century cottage range located on the east side of Main Street in Ufford. It is constructed of coursed stone rubble and features a steeply pitched new tile roof with stone coping at the gable ends. The cottage is one storey with an attic and has three windows, which are modern casements. There is a canted bay window on the left side, along with a stone end stack and a brick ridge stack.
