1 Central Beach, Lytham

This excellent and well maintained dial is easily visible, sited facing sun and sea on the town’s long promenade. Its motto reads : " Time Flies". Words and numerals are in black on white with a black border. There is a central relief of the sun with a highly detailed smiling human face in gold. Radiant flames and hour lines are also in gold.
