Where to Photograph Dovecotes in England

We are attempting to list all places where photographers can photograph Dovecotes within the UK, and this list concentrates on those we have identified in England. This is the start of a list that will both grow over time and hopefully we will be able to add more columns or information. We have also created the following lists for those that we have identified in Wales and Scotland

Where the names in the first column is hyperlinked this links to a Location page with more information on this site and over time more of these will be added, we will be delighted if some of you would like to also produce location pages.

Codes: Wiki Pic = Picture on Wikimedia, IE = Images of England, Geograph = Picture on Geograph, NT = National Trust, EH = English Heritage, HH = Historic Houses Association
