The Clock Tower at Hamilton First Church

December 2, 2025 Gordon Harris2 Comments
Hamilton First Church in the early 20th Century

In 1843, the Hamilton meetinghouse was turned 90 degrees to face the Bay Road, and the present bell was installed in the belfry. In 1888 a clock manufactured by E. Howard & Company of Boston was added to accompany the bell.
