Another Landmark Gone

We notice that the clock tower, which we always knew as Sunbury Clock, at the junction of six roads near Sunbury Station, has disappeared. Because the clocktower made this a very difficult junction drivers took it carefully. Now that the clock has been removed, it is less difficult, and as traffic-lights do not protect this crossing we can expect minor shunts to occur. Incidentally, is this old clock being preserved and what was its history?
