The tower of Image is framed by lampposts, chimneys and aerials. Pevsner writes: "The tower has a tall first stage and a second split between big clock faces and paired lancets to the belfry." Originally the tower had pinnacles at the corners but these were removed in 1860, presumably because of safety concerns. The clock, alas, no longer shows the correct time.
