Octagonal three-stage dovecot built in red sandstone rubble in 1801. There is a round-arched doorway to the west with an opening in the 2nd stage above and a further opening in the 3rd stage to the south. There are arched flight holes in the timber cupola for the pigeons to enter. However the wooden nests have been removed and there when I took the picture swallows were resting on the weather vane.
