The clock is on the wall of the Oxfam charity shop in Corn Street. The £20,000 timepiece was a controversial addition to the town centre because the clock face contains a representation of a woman in a ducking stool. Leominster was the last town in England to duck a woman in a river. There is pub named The Ducking Stool http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3681047 nearby, in South Street.
