HADDINGTONSHIRE 



string-courses, and a domed roof with central 

 circular entrance. Within are nearly nine hun- 

 dred nests, but no traces of a potence. 



A continuation of the walk will bring us to 

 that heaven of the golfer, Gullane, and, pur- 

 suing the road across the links, we come in 

 time to Aberlady, half a mile short of which 

 is Luffness House. Here, just within the en- 

 trance-gate and forming a delightful ornament 

 to a close-shaven sloping lawn, is a very simi- 

 lar dovecote to the Dirleton specimen. It is 

 perhaps slightly less massive in build, has only 

 two string-courses, and a flattish domed roof 

 crowned by a small lantern which is obviously 

 a later addition. Inside are five hundred and 

 fifty nests, with a potence slightly the worse 

 for age.
