The Clock Tower stands near the north entrance to Queen's Park, Crewe, in Cheshire, England. The park was given to the residents of the town by the London and North Western Railway Company, and the clock tower was paid for by its employees. It was unveiled on the same day the park was officially opened in 1888. The tower is built in sandstone and brick, and contains medallions with the heads of Queen Victoria and officials of the company. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II listed building.
==History==

Queen's Park was given to the people of Crewe for their recreation and relaxation by the London and North Western Railway Company, the major employers in the town. It was designed by F. W. Webb, the chief mechanical engineer of the company, together with Edward Kemp. The clock tower was paid for by the employees of the company, and was designed by John Brooke. The park was formally opened to the public on 9 June 1888 by the Duke of Cambridge. On the same day the clock tower was unveiled by James Middleton, who had been an engine driver of the company for 50 years. The clock itself was given and installed by a Mr Blackhurst, a local clockmaker. Originally the tower contained two drinking fountains with brass cups, and a barometer, but these are no longer present.
