Description
The building is a dovecote located in the east corner of the walled garden at Park House. It dates from the 18th century and incorporates some 17th-century brickwork. The structure is made of flint with brick and has a plain tile roof. It is square in shape and features brick quoins. On the south-west side, there is a doorway on the left with brick quoins and a flat header-brick arch. The eaves are stepped and dentilled, and the roof is hipped with a wooden finial. The left return has a bricked-up rectangular opening below the eaves. Inside, the dovecote is lined with brick and has nesting boxes on all sides, an old chamfered cross-beam, and 20th-century roof timbers.
