can't say that i would class or have classed langley as a town tempus...so where it would have been i really don't know..it has to be a langley mill reference surely..


The phrase "Town Clock" is just that, a phrase. A village like Langley could have a town clock if they clubbed together to buy one - it was very much in vogue at the end of the 19th century, and into the 20th.

It is certainly not the Town Clock of Langley Mill which was being referred to, as that was not even thought about until 1912.

My money is still on Laceyfields School!
