The Clock Tower

This bijou little brick and stone 18th century cottage, part of the estate of Barton Court on the edge of the village of Colwall between Ledbury and Malvern, was once the home of the head gardener, his two favourite dogs and his ferrets.

One of his duties was to keep the clock wound and accurate so every week he would climb the ladder in the bedroom up to the housing and wind the mechanism that keeps it working. It is still accurate now and chimes every quarter but we use it rarely because the ticking is so loud it would wake our guests!

An additional tasks was to ensure that the foxhounds were kept clean after their muddy excursions across the fields. To help with that, a hound wash was created as part of the building and can still be seen built into the foundations and underneath the bespoke ferret cages today.
