Description: Derry's Clock Tower This clock tower was built in 1862 and was at the heart of pre-war Plymouth and a meeting place for people. It used to be said that 'Marriages may be made in heaven but in Plymouth they are arranged under Derry's Clock'. Now it sits in a quiet backwater of the city centre sandwiched between the back of the Theatre Royal on the left of the photo and another rare remnant of pre-war Plymouth, The Bank Public House which was originally a bank. Behind The Bank can be seen the Council Offices tower block.
