This clock tower was erected in 1920 to commemorate all those from Gaywood who gave their lives during the First World War. It was designed by Mr J L Carnell of Lynn, and constructed by Messrs J Medwell and Sons. The memorial was unveiled on Sunday 6 March by Admiral Sir Reginald Constance. A tablet commemorating those who fell in the Second World War was added at a later date.
The memorial was originally positioned at the convergence of the Lynn, Wootton and Gayton Roads at approximately TF 6347 2048. It is understood that it originally stood on circular steps that formed a mini roundabout which was not an integral part of the structure. It had been removed as early as 1965.
