Saint Kitts and Nevis - Berkely Memorial Clock, Basseterre

Today Basseterre's French heritage is not nearly so prominent as its British colonial past. The centerpiece of the city's evocative Georgian architecture is its Circus, a diminutive roundabout modeled in proper Victorian patriotism after Piccadilly, in London. In the middle of the Circus stands the bright green bronze of the Berkeley Memorial Clock, an ornate, cast iron tower with four clock faces and more than a little architectural decoration. This postcard was sent from St. Kitts, thanks to Ann of Florida who went on a Caribbean cruise.
