Description

The building is a garden pavilion, now used as a dovecote, located approximately 50 metres southeast of Kildwick Hall. It dates from the mid-17th century, with alterations made in the mid to late 18th century. Constructed from coursed squared gritstone and ashlar, it features a graduated stone slate roof. The pavilion is a small square single-storey structure with gables on each side. Each corner has quoins and a projecting waterspout at the eaves, while the gables are coped and topped with pyramidal finials. The center of the roof is adorned with an oriental-style crocketed finial.

The west side, which serves as the entrance, has 6-panel double doors set in a plain surround with tie-stone jambs. The rear features a blocked 18th-century narrow window with a cusped chamfered head and a central iron bar. On the north and south sides, there are blocked 3-light recessed chamfered mullion windows under hoodmoulds, with label stops that are carved with a scroll motif. Inside, the pavilion has a coved plaster ceiling with a frieze that includes fluting and flower motifs. The building appears to have been constructed alongside the garden revetment wall, and the label stops are similar to those found on the rear kitchen of Kildwick Hall, which is dated 1673.
