Clock Face is a village and area of the town of St Helens, England, 4 mi (6.4 km) south of the town centre. It is a ward within the Metropolitan Borough of St Helens and forms part of the parish of Bold.
Historically a part of Lancashire, the village and area is so named because of a large clock face that adorned the Inn. The name was also adopted by a colliery in the area. The Clock Face public house, although not the original building, is built close to the original location and maintains the naming tradition.
