Clock tower, Clockhouse Lane Park
A surprising feature of a small park and recreation ground. A 1962 photograph reveals that this is the remaining core of an octagonal shelter or pavilion. Clockhouse Lane is named after Clock House, that was on the other side of the road, but now demolished. Was the clock, assuming there was one, transferred here?
