John Joseph Jones raised this Gothic clock tower above the Teme Valley in 1883–84 as a memorial to the cousin who had left him Abberley Hall, hiring the architect James Piers St Aubyn to design it. At 161 feet it’s a genuine landmark, and a waymark on the Worcestershire Way. The grounds belong to Abberley Hall School, so the tower is private, but it stands out plainly from the public paths that pass below.
