The Clocktower
Still a well known landmark in Warmley, this building is thought to have been the first purpose built pin factory.
Copper wire from the nearby foundry was turned into pins by hand, in a complex process.
The clock once had four faces in its tower, so that workers had no excuse for being late for work.
The 18th century clock mechanism may be seen inside the Kingswood Museum.
Some external re-building is believed to have taken place in the 19th century.
Today it serves as a community facility.
