Auchinbaird Windmill, also known as Sauchie Doocot or Dovecote, was a late 17th or early 18th century vaulted tower windmill built into a low ridge located on the outskirts of the town of Sauchie. It was built as either a grain mill or a water pump, and it was later converted into a dovecote, abandoned at an unknown date and later conserved as a landscape feature and visitor attraction. It is now a scheduled monument
