Description

The Kinaldie Dovecot is an early 18th century structure, likely of rectangular, single-compartment design. It is constructed from pinned boulder rubble with a "rat course" - a pattern where smaller stones are used between larger ones. The dove cot incorporates stone boxes into its construction. The roof is a modern double-pitch style.
