There is a false balcony, and then a window/turret below each of the four clock faces.
The dials have grayish concentric rings, with hourly 'ticks', but no numbering. (That is, NO Roman, or Arabic numbering!) Each is bordered with a 'mission brown' circle.
The metal hands are functional, and not ornate.
Without being able to get 'up close and personal' I would think that each dial is about a metre in diameter.
The square turret and clocks are topped with a low pyramidal roof and flag pole, that has three ventilation louvres on each side.
When visited in April 2015, these were all working.
