The two pigeon crees on either side of Lime Street greatly add to the aesthetic character of the Lower Ouseburn Valley. They highlight the long tradition of this local pastime. The crees are recently built timber structures nestled amongst the trees on the banks of the Ouseburn. Their blue and white designs make them quite distinctive. LOCAL LIST
