Description

The dovecote north of Luckington Court is a structure that dates back to possibly the 16th century. It is built from rubble stone and features a stone slate roof with ball finials at the gables. The east wall has a door with a timber lintel and a recessed chamfered single light at the apex. Inside, the dovecote is lined with ashlar nesting boxes, although the roof has been replaced. This dovecote, along with the nearby cottage, forms a matching pair.
