Dovecote 50m north east of Manor Farm House is a seventeenth-century brick structure located in Cambridgeshire. The building exemplifies the domestic agricultural architecture of the early modern period, when such structures served as important sources of fresh meat and fertiliser for rural estates. Constructed in brick with a square or rectangular plan typical of dovecotes from this era, the building retains evidence of internal nesting holes that would have accommodated pigeons. The monument represents a significant aspect of post-medieval rural economy and continues to survive as a material record of seventeenth-century farming practices and social hierarchy.
