Jubilee Clock Tower, Clock tower on the Esplanade in Weymouth, England.

The four-sided clock tower stands on a Portland stone base with cast and wrought iron construction, painted in strong colors along the seafront.

The structure was funded through public donations and erected in 1888 to mark Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee celebration of fifty years on the throne.

The clock tower functions as a central gathering point for Weymouth residents during New Year's Eve celebrations and other community festivities throughout the year.

Located directly on the beach promenade, the timepiece remains illuminated during evening hours and serves as a navigation reference point for beach visitors.

During the 1920s expansion of the Esplanade, construction crews built the promenade around the existing tower instead of relocating the structure.
