- Cotswold Dovecote - Henry and Clara Ford were avid birders and built this dovecote, modeled on one in Chesham, England. Dovecotes, which could only be owned by privileged landlords, were built to attract roosting birds, which helped control insects and provided manure for fertilizer. The nests could be reached from inside the dovecote where the eggs could be gathered, or birds trapped for food.
