Seafront clocktower will be moved

One of Dover’s best known landmarks – the seafront clocktower –
will be moved as part of the Western Docks redevelopment
plans.
News of the proposed move was confirmed to the Dover Mercury this
week as part of a scheme to create a new pier to replace the Prince
of Wales Pier – set to be lost to make way for three of the four
new ferry berths.
Exactly where the clocktower is to be re-positioned has not yet
been decided.
A spokeswoman for Dover Harbour Board said: “We are discussing with
various regulators, particularly English Heritage, the relocation
of the clocktower so that it remains at the entry to the new
pier.
“The proposed location is still being discussed and will be subject
to further consultation.”
