Felbrigg Hall - the dovecote The dovecote at Felbrigg Hall is believed to date from around 1750 and was renovated in 1923. Originally, the birds would have provided a source of fresh meat during the winter months and their droppings were used as manure for the garden. In more recent times dovecotes became primarily an ornamental feature.
