SY6879 ESPLANADE 873-1/21/166 (East side) Promenade shelter approx 65 metres south of the Jubilee Clock
GV II
Promenade shelter. Late C19. Castings by Jeffreys, Westminster. Cast-iron and wood structure with timber glazed panels, and painted wood roof. The low-pitched hipped roof has small gablets, and rich fretted decorative cast-iron embellishment to the ridge and to the eaves on all sides, covering an open-sided 2-bay shelter on 3 pairs of slender turned wood columns with cast-iron fretted brackets to a grid of moulded beams and a panelled soffit in 12 compartments, plus diagonal 'dragon beams' to the corner bays. Glazed screens have a central mullion, and a transom at the bracket springing height; wooden slatted seats are set to cast-iron scrolled brackets. One of 7 similar shelters (qv), maintained in good condition, this one is set back from the promenade edge, but formerly would have been at the edge, with its own railed balcony; the promenade has been widened here. The former lead roof has been replaced with a painted timber facsimile, including rolls, otherwise the detail is original. A small cast plate at the S end records: 'J JEFFREYS/ ....& CAST IRON/ 10 GREAT QUEEN STREET/ WESTMINSTER'.
