Description
The clock tower, located approximately 40 meters east of Heydon Hall, dates from the early to mid-19th century. It is constructed of red brick and features a black-glazed pantile roof. The building is 1½ storeys tall and has a T-shaped plan. The north and south gables are shaped and have brick coping along with moulded eaves corbels. On the west side, there is a central projection beneath a shaped gable, which has stuccoed brick coping and a finial. The large doorway is topped by a keyed semicircular rubbed brick arch with stone impost blocks, and it features double doors with vertical battens. A brick eaves corbel-table is present as well.
On the east wall, there is a smaller single door opening and a small window that has a stuccoed hollow-chamfered surround. The central square neo-Jacobean clock tower is made of painted timber and includes a base frieze of triglyphs and metopes, with corbels supporting Ionic corner pilasters adorned with blocking and strapwork decoration. A dentilled cornice runs along the top, and an octagonal bell cupola with an ogee lead-covered dome is supported by eight Doric columns. The dome is topped with a weather vane finial.
