Description

The Clock Tower is a mid-19th century freestanding structure made of ashlar stone. It features four Corinthian columns positioned at the corners, which support a bill entablature adorned with a fret motif on the frieze and a dentilled cornice. The tower is topped with a fish-scale dome that has an acanthus finial. Each of the four faces of the tower displays a clock set within panels, decorated with pendant swags. The plinth includes plaques on three sides and a low door on the fourth side.
