Flag Heritage Centre (Hepburn Doocot)
Description
This B-listed doocot is one of the earliest surviving Scottish examples from the 16th century, built by George Hepburn whose son was the founder and first colonel of the Royal Scots. Known as a lectern doocot, it is a rectangular structure with lean-to roof and entry holes for pigeons halfway down the slope. In 1996, the Hepburn doocot was restored and converted into an interpretative centre.
