The Clock Tower, St Albans is a Grade I listed belfry in St Albans, England which was constructed between 1403 and 1412,[3] believed to have been completed in 1405.[2] It has been claimed to be the only remaining medieval town belfry in England.[4] Its construction has been seen as a protest against the power of the local abbey to regulate time-keeping in the town.[2]
