Jubilee Clock Tower

The Queen Victoria Memorial Clock Tower is a Moorish-style Jubilee clocktower within George Town in the Malaysian state of Penang.

The tower is sixty feet to the centre of the clock, one foot for each year of Victoria's reign.

A corner of the wall surrounding Fort Cornwallis is situated behind the tower.

[1] It was donated by Cheah Chen Eok, a local businessman, who provided $30,000 for the purpose,[2] and was designed by Mr. Pierce, Municipal Engineer, Penang, and built by Messrs Barnett and Stark.

[3]The clock tower is slightly tilted, a result of bombing during the Second World War.
