This is close to Cresswell Hall and has an interesting Dovecot Tower, here's the history bit:-

Really liking this, especially the unusual tower/dovecote. Another nice find, Stesh.

Nice one.

I had seen this place on Google Earth and thought it was military! :mrgreen:

Never seen it like this before - the stonework is amazing. Dunno why but it reminds me of 1920's construction for some reason? Very very surprised the place still stands given its location.

Thanks for sharing.

I know that feeling! The amount of places me and Sausage have to do, I reckon we'll still not have done them when we are 90 years old.

I had drove up for a look one morning with Ali and the kids in the car, wasn't sure what the deal was on whether anyone still owned (with their being houses around it)... Take it no-one minds people wandering around?

It's not far from Cresswell Tower as it's all part of the old estate, on the question if someone would mind you looking around? Don't know, as there was noone to mind when I was there

Love the last pic, looks a really cool place.

Great to see these pics on the site.

My dad grew up on this farm in the 1920s (when it was one)
I think planning permission is up to restore the barn and turn it into housing.
At least it will be loved again
