Full Description
(Dovecote) Standing away from the other buildings in a grass paddock on Hawk's Nest Farm it is built of brick and measures 18ft x 20ft. The roof is new tiled, but was probably originally thatched. There is one string course of 2 bricks, 8ft up, and there are 2 entrances to the nests, each of 8 holes, on E and W sides. The lower part of the cote has been turned into a loose box for mares. (1)
The dovecote is built of modern brick in Flemish bond and is therefore not an antiquity. (2)
