Sun Clock Tower in Ascot Road in Watford A historic monument is under threat once again after a decision to save it from demolition was challenged. An appeal has been lodged with the Government s planning inspectorate after Watford Borough Council turned down an application last month to knock down the Sun Clock Tower. A council officer refused the application due to the tower s historical significance to the local area adding the locally listed building is an important local landmark , which campaigners have said is a reminder of Watford s rich printing heritage . Campaigners had turned their focus to restoring the privately owned tower, but following an appeal, a government inspector will now scrutinise the plans and could potentially overrule the council s decision.
