Victoria "Dockers" Clock (6 sided) Liverpool - Visited Oct 09 - Nov 2013

[Wherever I may Roam]

The Victoria Tower was designed by Jesse Hartley and completed in 1848. It was known as the Dockers' Clock. Its six clock faces allowed sailors to make sure their timepieces were correctly set as they headed off to sea, and a bell in the tower warned of fog or high tides. It is constructed of granite and is a Grade II Listed building.
