Description
The bandstand, built around 1880, was funded by Charles Brown of the department store Browns of Chester. It is constructed from yellow sandstone and cast iron, topped with a grey slate roof. The structure is octagonal in shape and features an ashlar plinth. The cast-iron plinth is decorated with wavy bars and ornamental panels inspired by 17th-century design. It is supported by eight slender moulded cast-iron columns and has ornate brackets. The ceiling is boarded, and the hipped roof is finished with an ornate cast-iron finial. The plinth includes a store-room with a covered door but no windows.
