The pattern of blue squares in our picture adorns the Falaise Road frontage of the Art Deco clock tower at the north end of White Rock Gardens, though what this structure is called, or whether indeed it has a name, we cannot say. In fact, in trying to find out a bit more about this striking timepiece, we\u2019ve stumbled on a bit of a mystery. Hastings Museum has nothing in its archives on the clock\u2019s designer or date of construction, nor even any idea who commissioned it. Even East Sussex Record Office have had trouble finding anything. So once again, any information our readers can supply will be gratefully received (and published).<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime a \u00a310 token from <a title=\"Empress Art\" href=\"http:\/\/www.bohemiavillage.com\/?p=19381\">Empress Art<\/a> has been dispatched to this month\u2019s winner, Mr M.

In fact there\u2019s a plaque on the side which says it all. \u201cSouthern Water \u2013 This clock tower was built by Southern Water as part of the \u00a343 million Hastings Bathing Water Improvement Scheme and was proposed by the Right Worshipful the Mayor of Hastings, Godfrey Daniel. Completed April 2000\u201d. A vent pipe was needed in that location and I suggested that it be disguised as a clock tower. Southern Water agreed. \u00a0Cllr Godfrey Daniel,\u00a0Hastings<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_7612\" style=\"width: 247px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bohemiavillage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bv\/209_322.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7612\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-7612\" title=\"209_322\" alt=\"A close up of the detail\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bohemiavillage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/bv\/209_322.jpg\" width=\"237\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-7612\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A close up of the detail<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Art Deco clock tower We received only one response to last month\u2019s puzzle, though that was possibly one more than we expected.
