This curious little clock tower used to stand over an artesian well that supplied water to the long-gone Sun Engraving Company's works. It was built in 1934 to a design by George W. Knight, a principal architect with Stanley Peach & Partners. Despite some restoration work in about 2008 (see Image), it is now in a state of disrepair and is apparently the subject of a dispute between its owners and Watford Borough Council.
