Clock Tower Fund |
The installation of a splendid three-faced clock tower, specially created by AW Porter and Son, celebrates the achievement of the Victoria & Appleton Halls' Millennium Scheme in Hartley Wintney.
On 6th October, the Victoria Halls' Charity Trustees were delighted to welcome one of Hampshire’s record-breaking daughters, round-the-world yachtswoman Dee Caffari, to switch on the new “hands of time” above Hartley Wintney.
|
 |
The clock tower, now rising proudly above the village, marks the culmination of a 15-year project which transformed an aging building into one of the country’s finest modern village community facilities.
|
AW Porter and Son, village clockmaker and jeweller (established 1844) has generously provided sponsorship for the clock. Other benefactors are The Emmanuel Kaye Foundation, Hartley Wintney Preservation Society, Hartley Wintney Parish Council and individual donors. |
Planning permission has been granted and fundraising is well underway.Sponsorship and donations are being actively sought and the Halls' Trustees appeal for your help and support.
|
Please give generously.
For further information please contact Chris Francis, Chairman 01252 844876 or admin.victoriahall@googlemail.com.
