St Mary’s Church is visible from almost every part of the market town of Beverley. Historically its turrets were lit to guide wayfarers safely across the Westwood, and visitors heading into Beverley across that vast pastureland are still greeted today by the church’s elegant tower emerging from the trees.
There is a clock face on each of the four sides of a square tower.
The faces are not solid but consist of an inner metal ring holding Roman Numerals for the hours, whilst the outer ring holds minute markers. The hands are fixed directly through the wall.
All the metal parts are rather dirty and look black, but there are hints that the original colour was gold.
