About the memorial: Clock. The Current [June 2021] clock is a replacement for the original, unveiled on 11 November 2014 as the original which was beyond economic repair. Sixteen civilians died instantly and 4 more later from their injuries. A further 128 were wounded. The clock is on a free standing fluted pillar painted red with gilded decoration. The clock has Roman numerals. There is an adjacent interpretative board. For the Centenary of WW1 a Metal Seat was later added. This is not a memorial in it's own right as it is a Generic seat of which there are a large number around the United Kingdom.
