Dunipace House Dovecot April 2006
This remnant of an old Dunipace mansion house was converted (before 1794) to a Dovecot and used by the new Dunipace House about 100 metres due west (demolished in the 1940’s). More information can be found in the Falkirk Local History Society periodical, Calatria — Volume 1, Autumn 1991 and available through most local (central Scotland) libraries. The article is on Doocots (dovecots) in Falkirk District. The roof was a circular slated structure finished at the top with a decorative lantern through which the doves could enter. The structure is a Category ‘B’ Listed Building in very poor condition.
