Jubilee Clock Tower and Attached Walls and Railings

The Jubilee Clock Tower, along with its attached walls and railings, is a clock tower built in 1897 and restored in 1977. It was designed by Foster and Wood of Bristol and features squared and coursed rockfaced sandstone with ashlar dressings and a plain tile roof, all in a free-form Gothic style. The structure is two storeys high and square in shape, with set back buttresses at the first-floor string course that develop from consoles into clasping buttresses, supporting a pyramidal roof.

On the south face, there is a doorway flanked by two trefoil-cusped side lights beneath a frieze decorated with paterae. The east face includes a projecting, buttressed niche for a drinking fountain, which has cast iron furnishings. Each facade displays cast iron clock faces, and there is an inscription on the string course below the bell stage, which features three cusped and panelled tracery lights surrounded by paterae on each side. The eaves cornice is bracketted.

The attached walls are 0.5 metres high, with 1 metre piers that have coved tops at regular intervals. There are plain spear railings with wrought iron decorative panels at intervals, and one similarly patterned gate on the south side of the enclosure. The Clock Tower is a significant visual feature at the apex of Front Street and was erected by Sidney Hill of Langford House.
