What is recorded here
Old Cheltenham Gas Works Offices and Clock Tower is a castle, fort or tower in Cheltenham, England. Perhaps the clock tower marked time for gas workers rather than kings, its bronze hand sweeping above soot-blackened offices. Maybe the building wore a practical coat instead of a military one, its strength measured in pressure pipelines rather than city walls. Imagine men and women pacing past ledgers where flame was counted like coin, the tower standing as a quiet beacon above the working street.
