Clock Tower of Murshidabad, Colonial clock tower in Nizamat Fort Campus, Murshidabad, India.
The Clock Tower rises between the Nizamat Imambara and Hazarduari Palace, featuring four masonry shields at its base and a prominent bell mechanism.
The structure, designed by Sagor Mistri under Colonel McLeod's supervision, represents the architectural developments during British colonial rule in Bengal.
Known locally as Ghari Ghar, the Clock Tower serves the community with its bell sounds and eastern-facing dial overlooking the Bhagirathi River.
