This clock, inside in the north transept, has been telling the time in Wells Cathedral (Somerset, England) since around 1390. The second oldest original working clock in the world, and the oldest with its original dials. (That and following information pp notice displayed with the clock.)
It shows hours and minutes, and the number of days since a new moon.
Above the dial, there is a group of figures which spins around on the quarter hour. As it spins, a knight is unhorsed by a lance. He is merely 600 years old. I presume the first one wore out!

This Series Called (Bye Sydney)
still hear your voice, when you sleep next to me.
I still feel your touch in my dreams.
Forgive me my weakness, but I don't know why
Without you it's hard to survive.
'Cause everytime we touch, I get this feeling.
And everytime we kiss I swear I could fly.
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last.
Need you by my side.
NOTE: I am not in love with someone but I just love this song :p

When Time Stopped Still
It was said that a fragment from an exploding shell stopped this alarm clock the moment it was hit during the 1914 Bombardment of Hartlepool, ironically, the clock was made in Germany
The clock belonged to a resident at 14 Collingwood Road
