Dovecot, Orbiston: This roofless and ruinous dovecot is 5m square, with a string-course and crowstepped gables. It is probably of 17th or early 18th century date, and was doubtless associated with the nearby Orbiston House (NS75NW 24).
Visited by OS (JLD) 10 September 1953
Only the base of the walls remains.
