Dovecote on site of manor house and gardens, Wakerley - North Northamptonshire (UA)
Roofless ruin of rectangular stone dovecote, C16-C18. Stone nesting boxes with alighting steps inside. Partial collapse of the internal east wall nesting boxes has occurred and the wall to the north has collapsed to a few courses above ground level. There is evidence of structural instability to the south and east elevations. It is likely that livestock is contributing to the displacement of stonework.
