Description
July 2014. Building recording.
The Bandstand was built in 1973 and is a concrete and brick structure more akin to a theatre than a traditional bandstand. Like the other buildings of Spurrier’s Core (see EHER 82865 and EHER 82866) it has been constructed of yellow stock brick in an attempt to blend in with the Victorian Spurrier’s House (EHER 82865). The Bandstand takes the form of a raised stage with funnelled sides and an overhead canopy.
There is a single-storey, flat-roofed ancillary structure to the rear and the north, which housed the green room and dressing rooms. <1>
