The Clock Tower (sometimes called the Jubilee Clock Tower) is a free-standing clock tower in the centre of Brighton, part of the English city of Brighton and Hove. Built in 1888 in commemoration of Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee, the distinctive structure included innovative structural features and became a landmark in the popular and fashionable seaside resort. The city's residents "retain a nostalgic affection" for it, even though opinion is sharply divided as to the tower's architectural merit. English Heritage has listed the clock tower at Grade II for its architectural and historical importance.
This clock, mounted on the outside wall of Wells Cathedral in Somerset, is driven by the same mechanism that connects to an interior astronomical clock in the north transept.
It was first installed between the 14th and 15th centuries and has, quite understandably, been restored a number of times down the centuries.
The clock’s original mechanism was removed in the 19th century to the Science Museum in London.
Despite its age, that original clock movement is still working!

I think the wide angle (and the S90's barrel distortion, which I don't think iPhoto's RAW convertor is dealing with) makes this look a bit weird. Maybe it's just the circular tiling patterns, though.
This is a photo from a happy customer, showing how well this can work in the home. We also have other styles not shown in this or the below picture.
