In just over two years since OTRA (Oakwood Traders and Residents Association) began a fundraising campaign, restoration finally got under way, and then just over 100 days from the Clock being dismantled to be taken away for restoration locals and visitors from far and wide could be present at the celebrations at the unveiling of the restored clock tower as the focal point of the restoration of the area.
OTRA are to be congratulated on all their hard work and perseverance in ensuring that this treasured local landmark could finally be restored to its former glory, and the surrounding public space could once again be enjoyed by visitors to this attractive corner of the Roundhay Conservation Area.
