Three ledged pigeon holes were formed in an internal gable of the east range of outbuildings at the courtyard of Dalquhairn House. These must have been inserted after the room at the end of the range had lost its roof and passed out of use (RCAHMS 1963, 356). All these buildings and the house have now been demolished.

- “Dalquhairn. … In the gable above this converted door three ledged pigeon-holes have been formed, and there are slight traces of nesting boxes on the inside. The window and pigeon-holes, being external features, must have been inserted after the room at the end of the range had lost its roof and passed out of use.” [P.356]
