The '''Clock Tower Courtyard''' is a cloister on the base of the [[Clock Tower]] at [[Hogwarts Castle]]. This cloister seems to be one of the older parts of the castle and the ceiling and walls are dilapidated. It also leads to the [[Wooden Bridge]] and, as it is on a hill, is on the third floor. In the centre of the courtyard is an antique fountain surrounded by statues of eagles. A pear tree also grows in this courtyard.
