The coordinates given take you to the north entrance to the Brazos County Courthouse. You will be able to see the the town clocks well before you reach the coordinates physical location. Honestly, you will not be able to see the clocks at the coordinates, but they will get you to the courthouse square where you will have clear views of the clocks.
There are four clocks facing the cardinal directions. Each clock face is identical to the others. The face is the dark brown background of the clocks structure. The white minutes marks form the circular ring around the large white minute and hour hands. The size of the clock face appears to be about 8 feet in diameter. The best view of the clocks are from the southwestern corner of the block forming the courthouse square. There is a large parking lot in this area that affords an unobstructed viewing of at least two of the western and southern facing clocks. The northern clock view is nearly completely blocked by tall trees in the front yard. The eastern facing clock is also obstructed by tall trees within the side yard of the square.
At the time of this posting, all the clocks within viewing were working and showing reasonably correct time.
