DOVECOT. On the NNW of the house there stands a large, oblong dovecot with crow-stepped gables. It probably dates from the early 18th century, and is still in use.
RCAHMS 1956, visited 1946
This residence, as described above, has been restored and has no outstanding architectural features. The dovecot, situated to the NE, not NNW, of the house, has a date-stone, not in situ, inscribed '1532' built into the SE face.
