2. This building, part of Penpont Manor [NPRN 16026] is situated just south of the River Usk and north of the A40, 6km west of Brecon. It lies 100m to the west of the main building and just north-west of the Hay Barn [NPRN 402698]. Jones and Smith and AJ Parkinson seem to describe the structure as a Granary, but Haslam and the CADW listing of 1963 describe it as a Dovecote. It is a square building, built on piers, with thin timber-framed, brick-panelled walls and a neo-gothic lantern on its pyramidal slate roof. It may be of the 17th century [CADW] though Jones and Smith date it as 18th century and Parkinson c.1800.
