Tollcross Clock's New Home: A £72k Restoration
Description
Edinburghs Iconic Clock Set for Restoration: A New Home and Timeline
The historic clock from Edinburghs Tollcross crossroads, removed in 2022 due to safety concerns, is set for a £72,572 restoration. The council aims to approve the funds next week, potentially starting the process as early as May. The clock wont return to its original spot due to damage risks and upkeep costs. Instead, officials will explore new locations with stakeholders, possibly requiring listed building consent. The clock is expected to be back in action by April 2027, breathing new life into Tollcross while avoiding past issues.
