Prince George was created Duke of York in the same year, married Princess Mary of Teck in 1893, and was created Prince of Wales in 1901.

Liverpool Echo Jun 13 2011

I RECENTLY attended an excellent lecture hosted by the University of Liverpool Alumni organisation at the Royal Liver Building, to mark the centenary of that iconic structure.

One of the speakers, Mr Peter de Figueiredo, gave a fascinating account of its design, construction and history, and mentioned, in particular, that the clock in the West Tower of the Liver Buildings was started at the precise moment that the crown was placed on the head of King George V on June 22, 1911.

He also said that each of the clock’s 25-foot diameter dials was 18 inches larger than those of Big Ben, and that it was originally known as “Great George”, but that this name had fallen out of use a long time ago.

George McFly: I know what you're gonna say, son. And you're right,

[chuckles breathlessly]

George McFly: you're right. But uh... Biff just happens to be my supervisor, and I'm afraid I'm just not very good at... confrontations.

Marty McFly: But the car, Dad. I mean, he wrecked it. He totaled it.

Back To The Future


Save the clock tower. Save the clock tower.
Mayor Wilson is sponsoring an initiative to replace that clock.
Thirty years ago, lightning struck that clock tower and the clock hasn't run since.
We at the Hill Valley Preservation Society think it should be preserved the way it is...
...as part of our history and heritage.
There's a quarter. Thanks.
