Bury, Town Hall And Clock Tower c.1955

More about this scene
Though built of quality stone, the Town Hall, designed by Reginald Edmunds in the 1930s, has little in the way of decoration; in that respect it is eclipsed by the ornate clock tower erected to the memory of Walter Whitehead. Born in Bury in 1840, Walter was appointed to the surgical staff of Manchester Royal Infirmary in 1873 and went on to become one of the most brilliant surgeons of his time.
