Promenade shelter. c1883-7. Metal and wood, roof of copper.
The shelter consists of 6 moulded metal columns with 4
brackets attached to their upper parts; the 2 inner columns
are set closer together so that their brackets touch, forming
a round arch; the brackets have openwork spandrels. Between
these columns the shelter is framed up with tongue-and-groove
panelling to a height of about one metre and then with glazed
panels above, the glazing renewed. Wooden benches, possibly of
a date with the shelter, fill the spaces between the columns,
2 to each side facing north and south, and there are
additional small benches on brackets at either end, facing
east and west. The underside of the roof is panelled, the roof
itself half-hipped.
