Dovecote at Elm Tree Farm is a circular stone-built dovecote located in Lincolnshire. The structure dates to the medieval period and represents a type of agricultural building designed for the domestication and management of pigeons, which provided an important source of protein and fertiliser for nearby settlements. The circular form and stone construction are characteristic of medieval dovecotes in the East Midlands region, reflecting the sustained demand for such structures among landholding communities during the medieval and post-medieval centuries.
