3/36 Memorial shelter on the Village Green

GV II

Memorial shelter : dated 1886 probably by John Douglas in memory of Auguste Maria Fuller. Ashlar red sandstone base, open timber top with pyramidal roof of wooden shingles, lead cap and iron finial. Octagonal battered plinth with 2 openings carries bulbous turned oak balusters carrying the roof. On inner side of lintel inscription reads :

ERECTED BY LUCY ANN INCE TO THE DEAR MEMORY OF HER SISTER AUGUSTE MARIA FULLER WHO DIED AT CHRISTLETON ON THE 4th OF JULY 1871. BLESSED ARE THE PURE IN HEART FOR THEY SHALL SEE GOD 1886.

Very similar to but simpler than an example in Eccleston village of 1874 by John Douglas.
