"The doocot, a B listed building where once doves were reared for the table of local lairds the Fleming family. The restoration was undertaken by the Scottish Lime Centre Trust masonry training squad, who replaced modern cement with material closer to the kind used in the 17th century, the dovecot should remain in prime condition for decades to come."
