1/117 Dovecote and attached barn and cow house about 10 yards - north of Kipperknoll
GV II
Dovecote and attached barn and cow house. Probably C18. Coursed sandstone rubble with corrugated iron roof, dovecote with hipped slate roof. Barn of roughly four bays aligned north/south with contemporary - or possibly slightly earlier - square dovecote forming and L-plan projection to the east at the south end; probably mid-C18 part timber-framed two-bay stable and loft at north end now linked by extension to main barn and cow house. The main barn has two levels, the lower one is now a cow house - indeed probably always was - and is largely masked on the west side by a C20 prefabricated shed (not included); to the left is a plain doorway; the upper level has end gable loft entrances and a row of nine pigeon holes above the left hand doorway. The link block is largely clad in corrugated iron. The stable to left has a rubble ground floor with central doorway flanked by simple window openings and a low timber-fronted, part weather- boarded, upper level. The east flank is interesting because it also has a row of nine pigeon holes over a doorway in line with the one on the opposite side. The former north gable end of the main barn/cow house has pigeon nesting boxes with ledges distributed on either side of the loft entrance - this is now concealed by the link block. The dovecote is of two stages capped by a small pyramidal glover above the truncated hipped roof; one window to first stage to south and west; on ground floor, doorway to north, partially blocked later doorway to south and lean-to to west.
