Cherryville seeks clock renovation for old four faced timepiece
Cherryville fire chief Jeff Cash aims to fix the McClintock clock attached to the former BB&T building. Erected in 1916, the four faced timepiece shows corrosion and deterioration. A renovation or replica could cost about 3750 dollars for removal and transport, with more estimates needed. The clock sits at Mountain and Main, a downtown symbol, and city leaders may fund via creative means after city hall renovations stalled.
