Dovecote at Mount Stewart, near Newtownards

I visited the National Trust Property of Mount Stewart, near Newtownards yesterday and discovered that they had done a lot of cutting back of foliage.  I only ever was able to see the top of the Dovecote before and never realised it was erected on these four pillars. 


 I appreciate your visit and comments.

 I hope you enjoyed this post today.

    They must have done some heavy duty pruning.

    Looks like they boosted its height as well. A little trim here and there can make lots of things look a lot better.

    The tradition of keeping pigeons seems to declined. This Dovecot seems unused now.

    It looks sturdy, i wonder if any birds still use it.
