of Holt Castle, Denbighshire. The fortress 

 was itself five-sided, and the dovecote was no 

 doubt designed tobe in keeping with the whole. 

 A ground-plan of the castle, dated 1620, shows 

 a five-sided building marked "Dovecote" in 

 the courtyard, and a note records it as a '*de- 

 cayd doue-house fiue square."
