Church clock
Church clock
In 1887 to celebrate Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee a new clock which still strikes the hours was placed on the tower. The face is unique as it has 63 minutes randomly arranged around the dial. Nobody knows how this came about. In 1997 the tower was restored and the clock face was repainted. The painter was asked to copy exactly the old one.
