An eye-level, slightly upward photograph captures the light yellow, two-story stone building of a clock tower under a partly cloudy sky. The building is positioned in the middle, and the central clock tower rises to the fourth story, with two long rectangular arched windows directly above the clock on the front. To the left is the South African flag, and to the right, a yellow flag, both slightly waving on silver poles. The lower level of the two-story building is dark grey stone, with smaller rectangular windows with dark frames, topped by a light yellow level, also with similar-sized rectangular windows, but with light brown wooden frames. Small trees frame the building at both ends of the light brown tiled roof. Below, the dark grey stone foundation wall features smaller rectangular windows with grey frames and is surrounded by a low stone wall covered with dark grey and light green lichen. Along the wall, different dark and medium green trees, ivy, and other plants and small-medium green shrubs, including red and orange aloe flowers, form a semi-circular hedge, almost hiding the foundation wall in the center. The clock tower stands under a partly blue and white sky with a few wispy, medium grey clouds spread evenly across it. In the right corner, a white, car is slightly visible. The ground is grey pavement.
