Site: Crouch End Clock Tower & Henry Reading Williams (3 memorials)
N8, The Broadway
There is a clock dial on each of the four facades, and they are all working - August 2004 anyway. Above each dial is inscribed "1895".
Behind the tower two trees have been planted, each with a plaque on the ground:
tree on right in the picture - Clock Tower centenary
tree on left:, behind the tower in the picture, F Neuner.
In April 2006 a local magazine was asking, with reference to the Ordinance Survey benchmark on the tower's west face, at the base, why it had been painted blue.
