This lean-to style dovecote can be found in a field adjacent to Denbrae Farm two miles to the west of the Ancient Fife town of St Andrews.
The doocot was built in 1706 and was in a ruinous state by the later half of the 20th century. Since then it has been preserved.
The lectern-style structure is rubble built with crowstepped gables and a slated roof. Halfway up the roof are a line of flight holes.
