Westquarter Dovecot
Property in Care no: 330 Designations: Scheduled Monument (SM90311) Taken into State care: 1950 (Guardianship) Last reviewed: 2013 HISTORIC ENVIRONMENT SCOTLAND STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE WESTQUARTER DOVECOT We continually revise our Statements of Significance, so they may vary in length, format and level of detail. While every effort is made to keep them up to date, they should not be considered a definitive or final assessment of our properties. Historic Environment Scotland – Scottish Charity No. SC045925 Principal Office: Longmore House, Salisbury Place, Edinburgh EH9 1SH Historic Environment Scotland – Scottish Charity No. SC045925 Principal Office: Longmore House, Salisbury Place, Edinburgh EH9 1SH WESTQUARTER DOVECOT SYNOPSIS Westquarter Dovecot stands in Dovecot Road, Westquarter, a 1930s ‘garden suburb’ 2 miles ESE of Falkirk. The property comprises a fine dovecot of the rectangular or ‘lectern’ type. The heraldic panel above the entrance doorway displays the arms of Sir William Livingston of Westquarter and his wife, Helenore, and the date 1647. However, architectural details suggest a date early in the 18th century for its construction, and it seems likely that the armorial panel was brought here from elsewhere. CHARACTER OF THE MONUMENT Historical Overview: • 1503 – an Act of Parliament directs all lairds to erect ‘dowcats’ (pigeon houses) as a benefit to the community. • 1620s? – a mansion is built on the Westquarter (Wastquarter) estate, probably by Sir William Livingston and his wife, Dame Helenore. Westquarter House is depicted on Blaeu’s Atlas (1654). • 1650s - Sir William serves with his cousin and neighbour, James Livingston of Callendar, in the Royalist cause of Charles II against Oliver Cromwell. • 1701 – Westquarter passes to the Livingstons of Bedlormie (a village in West Lothian).

Stirling County Building Warrants
Falkirk Archives (Archon Code: GB558) FALKIRK ARCHIVES Local authority records Stirling County Council Building Warrants Finding Aid Administrative History The origins of building standards were in the Dean of Guild Courts of the medieval Royal Burghs. Their powers to hear offences against neighbourliness gradually evolved into modern planning and building control regulations. From 1862 Town Councils were permitted to set up Dean of Guild Courts and from 1892 all town councils were required to set up Dean of Guild Courts. The Dean of Guild Courts had powers to impose conditions relating to public health under the 1862 Police Act. County Councils had similar powers from 1889. Scope and Contents Building warrant files, building warrant application registers and annotated Ordnance Survey maps, for the geographical area formerly administered by Stirling County Council and now administered by Falkirk Council. Building warrant files contain the plans, petitions (ie applications), completions certificates, correspondence and related papers submitted to the local authority for permission to build or to make structural alterations to domestic and public buildings under successive building control and building standards legislation. The Registers provide a summary list of applications and their outcome. Arrangement Stirling County Council building warrants from c 1900-1964 were separated into geographical areas and this order has been maintained. The red area covers the south and east of the former County of Stirling, including Shieldhill, Polmont and the Braes. The yellow area covers the areas around Bonnybridge, Denny and Dunipace. The blue area covers Airth, Larbert and Stenhousemuir. However it should be noted that some building warrant files were put into the “wrong” colour-coded area and there has been no attempt to correct this.
