Tower / Mike Bundock.
"Margate Clock Tower is an iconic and well-loved feature of Margate. Built to commemorate Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee, it was officially opened on 24th May 1889, the Queen's 70th birthday. The Clock Tower boasts a time ball, used to allow ships at sea and onlookers on shore to set their clocks accurately.
