Development History
November 2007: External inspection reveals the structure is roofless and unsecured. There are exposed wallheads and the three conical finials detailed on the doocot's Listing, are missing.
May 2010: External inspection finds the fine example of a double chambered lecturn doocot remains roofless. Stone decay at wallheads and nexting boxes is beginning to accelerate, and plant growths are damaging the structure.
14 August 2013: External inspection finds no significant change from the prevbious site visit.
