An early 18th century brick-built dovecote.

An area of rough stonework was noted at the bottom of the western wall of the dovecote in April 2001, during a site visit to inform proposed re-development in this area. It was thought that the stonework might represent the remains of an earlier structure that had stood on the site, and had been re-used in the construction of the dovecote in the 18th century. {2}{3}
