John Lapworth photographed Eastgate in Chester. He said: “In 1899 a clock was added to the top of the Eastgate, Chester, to celebrate the diamond jubilee of Queen Victoria two years earlier.
“The official opening of the clock was performed on May 27, 1899, which was Queen Victoria’s 80th birthday. After souvenir hunters stole the hands from the clock, the city council glazed the clock faces in 1988.”
