Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Crouch End: The Clock Tower Quite extraordinarily this is not a clock tower built to commemorate a jubilee of Queen Victoria, as almost all of this age are. Instead it was raised in 1895 by subscription in appreciation and recognition of the public services rendered by Henry Reader Williams to the district of Hornsey over a period of twenty five years. He was a local wine merchant and local councillor who led the campaign to preserve Highgate Wood against threatened development. He was born in London in 1822 and died in 1897 aged 75 so lived to see the clock tower built in his recognition. Not only that but the tower is also substantially higher and bulkier than many that were built to record Queen Victoria's jubilees. No doubt she would not have been amused. |
