ABBEY DUCIS COURTYARD

artbar

On the Southern side of the Neals Gardens stands Abbey Ducis, an Arts and Crafts
inspired dovecote and rabbit hutch. Inside reside two rabbits named Clive and Celina Bradbury-Scott
and over two dozen domestic doves of mixed varieties. The Bradbury-Scotts are a long
line of shelter-rescued rabbits who have lived with us since we occupied Marc-James Manor.
Past members of the family include Anthea, Cloethlide and Bart.

Dove Cote.
