Definition
A shelter or hut for chickens, similar to a henhouse or chicken coop.
Etymology
From Old English 'hen' plus 'cote,' an Old English word for shelter or small house (related to 'cottage'). This is an older, less common synonym for henhouse.
Kelly Says
Hencote is a beautiful example of how English has multiple words for the same thing—'cote' survives today mainly in 'dovecote,' but it once described many small animal shelters.
