GV II

Pigeon house. Probably C17. Rubble, stone conical dome roof, much overgrown at time of survey (July 1986). A circular building with an opening to voussoirs in segmental arch towards the farmhouse to north; on opposite side a high small opening with landing shelf. Interior has 13 rows of staggered pigeon holes, a stone dome to centre opening. A good survival from the earlier farm group (Bigbury Court Hotel, q.v.).
