Farley Clock Tower is a small but recognisable West Bromwich landmark, the sort of civic object that gives an industrial town a visible centre of memory. Its clock, masonry, and street-corner presence belong to the era when public timekeeping was part of civic pride.
It is not worth crossing the Midlands for on its own, but it clears the bar on a West Bromwich page because the town's interest lies in exactly these local survivals. Stop briefly while walking between the town centre sights.
