WEYMOUTH

SO6879NW ESPLANADE 873-1/18/168 (East side) Promenade shelter approx 55 metres north of Jubilee Clock Tower

GV II

Promenade shelter. Late C19. Cast-iron and wood structure with timber glazed panels, lead covered 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 brackets, but the seat to the N has been removed. 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. All detail appears to be original; no founder's or contractor's plate survives.
