In Bolton is the First Parish of Bolton, which has a tower with a steeple, adorned with clock faces.
The church is on the north side of Mass. Route 117 (Main Street), and is just to the west of the Bolton Town Hall.
The clocks are above the main entrance to the auditorium/sanctuary. There are at least three faces. The Roman numbers are painted gold on a black background. The hands are also painted gold.
I didn't stick around to hear if there was a bell chime. The clock faces were all different, but the one on the west side was about the the right time.
I'm not sure exactly when the clock was installed. The church web site mentioned that there was a fire that burned the previous structure down. The present structure that replaced it was dedicated on October 14, 1928.
