Clevedon TriangleThe Clock Tower in the centre of Clevedon's Triangle shopping area, was designed and built by Sir Edmund Harry Elton, a world famous Potter, to celebrate Queen Victoria's Jubilee. On the North face, he used a medallion of the head of Father Time, and used Elton-ware mosaics on the tower, which was completed in 1898. |

Clevedon PierA stroll down the pier in December 1970 may not have sounded a lot of fun to many people, but could have been just the thing for a Boxing Day outing. However, this could not take place due to a partial collapse of the pier earlier in the year. Read all about it on the Clevedon Pier and Heritage Centre web site. |

Clevedon - Looking south from the M5 motorway footbridgeFor thousands of people travelling down the M5 motorway every day, this is the only view they ever see of Clevedon. On weekends in the summer months the motorway can grind to a halt with the large volumes of traffic heading for Devon and Cornwall. I am sure many people have memories of queuing here on a hot Saturday. |
