What reading level is A book of Dovecotes book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
170 CHAPTER THIRTEEN SUSSEX, HAMPSHIRE, AND WILTSHIRE CHAPTER THIRTEEN SUSSEX, HAMPSHIRE, AND WILTSHIRE The vanished Herefordshire dovecote of Bos- bury had, as was pointed out, strong claims for its inclusion in the record given here. But it was not unique, others of its kind remaining.
This, unhappily, is not the case with one about to be described, and the vandalism which per- mitted the destruction of a building absolute- ly unique should not go unrecorded and uncen- sured.
Towards the clos...e of the eighteenth century the dovecote which then stood among the ruins of Lewes Priory, Sussex, was deliberately "pulled down for the sake of the materials," This extraordinary building, almost certain- ly unmatched in England, was of cruciform shape and unusual size. The longer arm, which pointed north and south, was eighty-one feet three inches long, the cross-arm being a foot shorter. Slightly different dimensions have been given, but those set down here are from a careful measurement of the foundations, made in 1895.
