Singer-Clock Hands
On the Bank of the Forth and Clyde Canal, Clydebank

A. I.-Generated Article:

The Singer Clock was an iconic beacon for the town of Clydebank between 1884 and 1963. It could be seen for miles around and would signal to sailors coming up the Clyde that they were nearly home. The clock tower was part of the Singer sewing machine factory, which was built in 1882-1885 and by 1885 was the largest factory in the world. The famous Singer clock tower was a landmark, but it was demolished in 1963 to make way for new workshops.

It was, Rosa. I think, in its day, it was the largest clock in Europe. I remember it well. Thanks for your very kind comment. Cheers, Joe
