Dovecote

Dovecote
The Dovecote and a small part of the extensive ruins, of Dunure Castle, which sits high on a cliff above the South Ayrshire Coast
These ruins were part of the castle built in the 15th and 16 century, which replaced an older castle on this same site, it has been ruins for around 300years,

The large Dovecote was well maintained and stocked as a good source of fresh food and feathers, plus a large Dovecote was also a major status symbol.

HFF and a good weekend,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, a large view for clarity and detail perhaps!

Andrea Ertl, Berny, SV1XV, Edna Edenkoben and 44 other people have particularly liked this photo

Hi Roger
A very nice picture, which I like very much!
Wonderful and interesting composition

Did they really eat doves? Perhaps pigeons were bigger.?
Best Wishes, HFF, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!
