Sedgley (in hat), and other workman are standing at the top with other workman looking through the opening where the clock would be placed. The tower is still surrounded by scaffolding. This photograph was printed in postcard form. The Memorial was unveiled on 25 November 1923, so this photograph was probably taken in the second half of 1923.
