The dovecot has a rectangular plan and is two storeys high, topped with a double Roman tiled roof. The north elevation includes two bow segmental headed openings, while the rear has a hood mould and a timber lintel that remains from a blocked ground floor opening, with buttresses on both sides. Inside, the structure is open to the roof, which consists of three bays supported by a tie-beam, collar, and two rows of purlins. The walls contain pigeon holes and perches all around.
