Church clock on the bell tower of St Mary's church, Capel St Mary. The clock has a black face with gilded roman numerals and hands.
"The tower is square and can be dated to the 15 th century and prior to 1818 it supported a spire. Refaced with rough flint it shows evidence of re-used Roman bricks within its construction. It is in three stages with two drip courses and at its base can be found ashlar panels, some replaced with flint, decorated with blind arcades. On the south face, the clock commemorates the Diamond Jubilee in 1897 of Queen Victoria (Paid for by voluntary subscription at the cost of £120)."
