It is a tall circular brick building with a conical slate roof topped by a small lantern, on top of which is a weather vane with the date 1737 cut in its 'tail'. It has a door on the south-west side, and oval windows with stone surrounds on the east and west sides. Inside there are thought to be about 700 nesting holes.
