Description

The building is a pigeon house located to the rear of The Pigeon House on Pigeon House Lane. Although it appears to be from the early 19th century, it is said to date back to the 18th century. This two-storey structure has a square plan and is constructed from rubble with ashlar quoins. It features a pyramidal tiled roof. There are no openings for pigeons, but there are doors on the north and south sides and a window on the west side. It may have originally served as a stable.
