Description
The Clock Tower at Home Farm on the Sezincote Estate is a Grade II* listed building, constructed between 1800 and 1805 by Samuel Pepys Cockerell and Thomas Daniell for Sir Charles Cockerell. This structure features coursed squared and dressed limestone with a brick first floor, topped by a limestone slate roof. It has a rectangular plan and stands two storeys tall. The ground floor is open-fronted, with five openings that have wooden lintels and limestone piers at both ends. There are two double doors located at the far right. The first floor has paired horizontal ventilation windows.
At the center of the building is a tower that includes a single light metal casement window and pointed merlons arranged in squares at each corner. The tower is topped with a stone Mogul/Hindu style lantern that houses the clock, featuring a stepped pyramidal roof and a weathervane at the apex. The lower level of the roof on either side of the tower has a double pitch, adorned with ornate pointed finials on square pedestals, complete with moulded caps at the eaves and ridge ends. The gable ends are finished with flat coping, and access to the first floor is provided by steps on the left gable end. Inside, the building features curved tie beams.
