Although similar in construction to the Stanton Shelter the internal shape is different in that it is less &#8220;pointy&#8221;. The &#8220;pointier&#8221; Stanton shape means the lower walls are more upright thus giving more room for seated occupants of the shelter. All the panels are stencilled with the Balfour Beatty logo (BB rotated 90 degrees) so it may be a variant of the Stanton produced by Balfour Beatty. Note some of the panels are wired together rather than being bolted as they should be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1
