On a slight rise in a field immediately to the NW of Kilspindie steading (NO22NW 71.00), there is a late 17th-century lectern dovecot. It measures 7.86m from W to E by 5.13m transversely over rubble walls 0.6m in thickness. At some stage the dovecot has been re-roofed with slates, but this roof has partly collapsed; it was fitted with three dormers, of which one survives. The copes are plain and on the back-wall are capped by two pyramidic-finials. There is a stepped rat ledge, and a fragment of medieval tracery has been inset above the ledge at the centre of the S wall.
