Menara Jam Condong

Batu di simpang tu dipanggil Batu Tenggek. Ia merupakan War Memorial. Masa teman jadi scout di sekolah Sultan dulu pernah lah ada projek kena tulis benda2 bersejarah di sekitar teluk intan.

antara benda yg ditulis ialah mengenai batu tu. banyak dah lupa dah. kata orang, dulu batu tu kecik je tapi makin lama makin besar.

untuk teman mengingat balik dan utk pengetahuan semua juga, teman paste catatan berikut dari Wiki.


Memorial Stone




Another attraction is the 'Batu Tenggek' (Sitting Boulder) which is situated at a junction in the town centre. The rock was believed to be placed by a British soldier and was a size of a matchbox. Over the years, the small rock grew bigger until it reached the size of a boulder. Upon closer inspection, crystal-like substances can be seen throughout the rock's surface. As crystals have expanding properties, this might explain the growing nature of the stone. This boulder is now part of a local war memorial built to commemorate World War I and World War II. The plaque on the memorial carries a line from Laurence Binyon's famous poem, For the Fallen :

At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them
and the dates of the 2 conflicts commemorated :

1914-1918
1939-1945

setahu teman batu ni dibuat sebagai memorial utk askar omputih yg mati semasa perang dunia ke 2
