Tips

The clock tower was built in 1884 by John Joseph Jones, who had inherited the Abberley Hall estate.

The clock tower can be seen from miles around and has become an iconic feature of both the estate and the Worcestershire countryside. Visitors can climb up to the top of the tower and see seven counties on a clear day. The oriel room on the tower’s second floor has beautiful stained-glass windows and glazed tiles around the fireplace are decorated with the initials of John Joseph Jones who commissioned the building. It houses one of the earliest examples of a flushing water closet.

The distinctive Abberley Clock Tower, seen close to Woodbury Hill, is a Grade II listed building in the grounds of Abberley Hall School. The tower is the setting for the children's book by Gene Kemp, The Clock Tower Ghost, renamed Addlesbury Tower. Considered a modern classic, written in 1981, the novel is one of the author's most popular stories.
