This is the Clock Tower at Jorstadt Castle. The five foot diameter clock faces on all four sides are made of wrought iron and the totally manual clock mechanism maintains accurate time within three minutes per month! Not a small feat for engineering over 65 years old, but a testament to quality workmanship.. The Westminster Chimes, housed beneath the red roof, can be heard on the U.S. and Canadian mainland every fifteen minutes when they sound. A walkway leads from the main Castle to the Clock Tower where a wide staircase connects to the South Boathouse keeping one dry during stormy weather.

The Clock Room was not part of the original construction but was added circa 1930 along with a Master bedroom over the library and a squash court on the North bank..
