Gainesboro, TN - Town Clocks on Waymarking.com

A clock is located on each side of the clock tower portion of the Jackson County Courthouse in Gainesboro, TN. The clocks have a white background with black Roman numerals and normal black hour and minute hands. It appears to not be working as the time was off, and not by just an hour or a few minutes either way.

"Jackson County Courthouse, 1927, 3 story, masonry construction, cut stone foundation, sided with yellow bricks, 8/8 double-hung windows, roof hidden by parapet wall, parapet wall has triangular pediments decorated limestone swags and urns.

On August 14, 1872, a fire destroyed the first Jackson County Courthouse. Construction was completed on the second one in 1874. This structure was demolished in 1903 to be replaced by a new building constructed in the same year. This structure, like the first, burned on November 5, 1926. Until the next (current) structure was built, the courthouse activities and jail were temporarily located in a store at 200 East Hull. The current courthouse was built in 1927 and was designed by Tisdale, Pinson and Stone of Nashville."
