DOVECOT. At the south-western angle of the, bowling-green, which lies on the south of the castle, is a fine circular dovecot of the 16th century. It rises in four stages each being defined by a string-course. The entrance is to the north and is protected by a weather-table supported on corbels. The walls are built in rings, which converge as they rise to a circular opening in the roof. The nests are small, and the spaces between them are unusually wide. The foundation for the potence is visible on the floor. The internal diameter is 16 ½ feet, and the height some 30 feet.
