SY6879 ESPLANADE 873-1/21/165 (East side) Promenade shelter opposite No.88 (No.88 not included)

GV II

Promenade shelter. Late C19. Erected by Bird and Cox, contractors, Weymouth. Cast-iron and wood structure with timber glazed panels, painted wood roof. The low-pitched hipped roof has small gablets, and rich cast-iron fretted embellishments 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 extended here. The former lead-covered roof has been replaced with a painted timber facsimile, including rolls, otherwise the detail is original.
