This wonderful WW1 memorial clock tower is in Ulverstone Tasmania. The three pillars represent the armed forces - army, navy and airforce - linked together with the chains built over the original WW1 memorial. It looks great during the day, but at night it is quite special.

Located on Eastgate Street, the Eastgate Clock stands as Chester’s most iconic landmark and the second most photographed clock globally, following Big Ben. Constructed in 1899 to commemorate Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee of 1897, the clock was crafted by the renowned J.B. Joyce of Whitchurch, Shropshire.
Until 1974, Joyce dispatched a technician to Chester weekly to maintain the clock’s winding mechanism.
Eastgate and the Eastgate Clock occupy the site of the original entrance to the Deva Victrix fort. However, the original Roman gate was reconstructed during the Georgian era to facilitate access for coaches.

The old historical and architectural "bell tower" is located near a big nice park in Milan close to the old history.
I almost took this, because it looks good and the genuine ones are never good, but I've brought home some other unis lately, so I left this one. I did find the Mercury emblem a few feet away, and I took that.

This clock exists because way back when it was planned to open a public library in Morecambe. A councillor collected contributions from a variety of donors to build the library. The problem was the ongoing running of the place - it would require a halfpenny added to everyone's rates (local taxes) which was a step too far, apparently.
So, what to do with the accumulated donations? Easy - build a clock tower!
