SY6879 ESPLANADE 873-1/21/162 (East side) Promenade shelter opposite Bond Street
GV II
Promenade shelter. Late C19. Cast-iron and wood structure with timber glazed panels, 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, like most of them, is set back from the promenade edge, but formerly would have been at the edge, with its own railed balcony; the promenade has been later extended here. The former lead-covered roof has been replaced with a painted timber facsimile, including rolls, otherwise the detail is original.
