The dovecote lies to the NE of, and adjacent to, the East Block of Oxwich Castle. Its west half and its former domed roof have collapsed. The structure is entered on the east side by a doorway with segmented head and contains a series of nesting holes in eleven layers. It is believed to be contemporary with the nearby early sixteenth century buildings.
