Situated in Latton Street CM20 3SD, this clock tower is near the Clock Tower Roundabout where the A414 and A1025 roads meet. It was built in 1864 by the Revd Joseph Arkwright in order to ensure the punctuality of his estate workers. Inscribed over the entrance is the text 'Work while it is day' which comes from the Gospel of St John ch9 v4. This clock tower is now a Grade II listed building.
