Chamberlain Clock, Edwardian clock tower in Jewellery Quarter, Birmingham, England
The cast iron clock tower stands at the intersection of Vyse Street, Frederick Street, and Warstone Lane, marking a central point in the district.
The clock was constructed in 1903 to commemorate Joseph Chamberlain's tour of South Africa following the Second Boer War.
The timepiece represents Birmingham's industrial heritage and stands as a symbol of the neighborhood's connection to jewelry manufacturing.
The clock underwent complete restoration in 2021, with modern electrical mechanisms replacing the original manual winding system.
Joseph Chamberlain, who lived on Frederick Street, helped local jewelers by working to eliminate the Plate Duties tax on their trade.
