We are attempting to list all places where
photographers can photograph Dovecotes within the UK, and this list concentrates
on those we have identified in Wales. This is the start of a list
that will both grow over time and
hopefully we will be able to add more columns or information. We have also
created the following lists for those that we have identified in England and
Scotland
Where the names in the first column is hyperlinked
this links to a Location page with more information on this
site and over time more of these will be added, we will be delighted if some of
you would like to also produce location pages.
Codes: Wiki Pic = Picture on Wikamedia,
