The Clock at the very top of the Mount Pavilion is a First World War registered War Memorial. It was donated in memory of those who did not return from World War 1. Mr Issac Spencer was a fish meal producer and the wealthy port businessman who paid for it.
The Mount Clock and two chimes is worked from a mechanism inside the building. Inside the Pavilion is a plaque dedicating the clock to those lost in the Great War of 1914-18. It was put in place when the clock first ran on 19 February 1919.
The Inscription reads: ‘The Great War 1914 -18′ Fleetwood Memorial Clock. This clock is in recognition of the magnificent response made by the men of Fleetwood to the nation’s call. Their devotion to duty, their noble and courageous deeds on sea and land and in so many cases their supreme sacrifice in the defence of freedom; also in sympathy with the maimed, the widows, and the fatherless’.
