Dovecote About 15 Metres South Of The Stable Block To Brympton House

This dovecote, located about 15 metres south of the stable block at Brympton House, is likely from the early 20th century. It is constructed from ham stone and features a cedarwood crown. The base consists of three circular stone steps leading up to a chamfered square block that supports a Doric column topped with a slab. Above this is a hexagonal wooden structure with a hipped roof and a knob finial. Each face of the dovecote has two semi-circular arched bird holes, one positioned above the other, with the upper hole being a slightly modified version of the original design shown in the book "Garden Ornament" by Gertrude Jekyll and Christopher Hussey, published in London in 1927.
