Moseley Hall Dovecote and 18c style garden
179b Alcester Road, Moseley, Birmingham, West Midlands, B13 8JR
Discover why the wealthy people who owned dovecotes had them built at the edge of their properties, and the role that the brown rat and the French Revolution played in the closure of dovecotes. Our industrious Moseley History Group will be displaying the results of their recent research. The garden has been developed using plants available in the 18th century. The herb garden with its lavender border is at its best in September.
