Description

This shelter, built in 1874 by John Douglas for the 1st Duke of Westminster, is located at the junction of Church Road and Paddock Road, forming an island in the road at the village center. Originally serving as a well house, it has an octagonal shape and is oak framed, featuring heavy turned oak balusters set on a tall battered plinth made of red sandstone. The roof is a truncated octagonal pyramid that supports a louvred ventilator beneath a spirelet, which is topped with a lead-covered finial that carries a gilded fish. There is a band of shaped openwork oak beneath the swept eaves.
