This year Quex is also celebrating 200 years of the Waterloo Tower, which was built in 1819 (Covid has delayed the celebrations). The Waterloo Tower contains 12 bells which were rung at approximately 3.45pm on both days.

The Tower was open for people to marvel at and experts were there to explain its history and answer any questions.
