Description
The bandstand, located approximately 200 metres east of Montpellier Rotunda in Cheltenham, was built around 1895 and restored in 1994 by the Cheltenham Civic Society, maintaining its original colour scheme. It features an octagonal stone base supported by iron columns and a balustrade. The structure has a wooden and ribbed tester with a coved section and a scalloped board beneath the moulded eaves, topped by a concealed peaked roof. Steps lead up to the southeast entrance. The fluted columns at the corners have acanthus caps, and the balustrade includes embellished panels with floriate scroll decoration and a central mask, derived from a pattern book by the Coalbrookdale Company, which is preserved at the Ironbridge Gorge Museum. A similar design appears in the ironwork of Thirlestaine Court and The Savoy Hotel. Historically, Montpellier Gardens were designed by JB Papworth for Pearson Thompson between 1825 and 1826.
