Dovecote

What is recorded here

Castle Madoc, Dovecote is a Post Medieval dove loft in Powys, Wales. It is no grand castle but a small tower built to keep pigeons for food and fertility. The stones may still hold warmth from human hands and bird noise. Such places remind us that even ordinary villages once measured wealth in living things they could feed, keep and share.
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Castle Madoc, Dovecote as Dovecote from the Post Medieval period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
