Bus Shelter 10 Metres South Of Footbridge

This bus shelter, located 10 metres south of the footbridge, was built in 1937 by Laurence Whistler. It features wood construction on a squared stone plinth and has a Lakeland slate roof. The shelter has a central opening framed by Tuscan pilasters, with the date inscribed in Roman numerals on the lintel between two opposing Rs. The walls are horizontally panelled, and there is a moulded eaves cornice. The roof is swept and hipped. On the left side, there is an iron-framed casement window with radial and concentric glazing bars set under a round arch. This shelter is one of a pair given to the village by Lord Ridley to commemorate the coronation of King George VI.
