Description

This is a shelter located opposite Nos. 10-12 Promenade in Southport, likely built around 1913. It was manufactured by David King & Son in Glasgow and supplied by William Robson, an ironmonger in Southport. The structure is made of cast iron and glass, featuring a lead-clad roof.

The shelter has an H-plan layout under a rectangular roof and is a single storey. It is supported by cast-iron columns with crocket capitals and has elaborate foliated brackets supporting the roof. The dado consists of solid panels adorned with Art Nouveau motifs, and there are glazed screens with iron glazing bars in the overlights. The roof is swept, and there are wooden slatted benches in the side and end bays.

This shelter is part of a group of similar structures along the Promenade.
