Dovecot, Blackhall.
In the courtyard of the Tulliallan estate-buildings at Blackhall is a late rectangular dovecot with crow-stepped flanks and a modern slated roof. It measures 22 feet 10 inches in length by 14 feet 2 inches in breadth, over walls 2 feet thick, while the height on the north is 24 ½ feet and on the south, including an eaves-course, 13 ½ feet. The doorway is on the west, and there is a small window high up in the centre of the south wall. There is no string-course, and the stone nests have in some cases been replaced by wooden ones.
