Description
The structure is a promenade shelter located opposite the end of Eaton Place in Brighton, built around 1883 to 1887. It is constructed from cast iron and wood, with a metal roof. The shelter features six cast-iron columns, each with four brackets attached to their upper parts. The two inner columns are positioned closer together, allowing their brackets to touch and create a round arch, with openwork spandrels on the brackets.
The space between the columns is filled with tongue-and-groove panelling up to a height of about three feet, topped with renewed glazed panels. Inside, there are wooden benches, likely dating from the same period as the shelter, arranged two on each side facing north and south, along with additional smaller seats on brackets at either end, facing east and west. The underside of the roof is panelled, and the roof itself is hipped with louvred gablets.
