The Cunningham Clock Tower (Urdu: کننگہام گھنٹہ گھر) in Peshawar, Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan, was built in 1900,[1] "in commemoration of Her Majesty the Queen Empress Victoria". The tower was named after the Commissioner of Peshawar, Sir Alexander Frederick Douglas Cunningham[2] (son of Alexander Cunningham), not to be confused with Sir George Cunningham,[3] former British governor and political agent in the province.
