1/50 Detail from plaque on south wall of the dovecote at Yew Tree House, Sibford Gower. The inscription is no longer legible, but it was recorded by M. Dix in 1937 as “Aspicis ut veniant et candida tecta columbae, accipiat nullas sordida turris ave. J.H. 1728”. It translates as “You see how the doves come to a white dwelling, how an unclean tower harbours no birds.” and comes from Ovid Tristia 1.9.1. “J.H.” is Joseph Hopkyns.
