I guess it is necessary to be able to tell the time while you are riding around your estate on your sit-on mower?
The famous “Binns Clock” on the corner of Princes Street and Hope Street in Edinburgh has been restored. The building used to be occupied by the department store Binns which was taken over by House of Fraser in 1953. The clock was installed in 1960 and was an iconic meeting place. The Frasers store closed in 2018 and the building is currently being converted into the Johnnie Walker Experience. The clock restoration work was carried out by the Cumbria Clock Company who also repaired the musical mechanism which plays traditional Scottish tunes every half an hour as the kilted figures march out of the clock. In keeping with tradition, the Highland figures will emerge to the musical accompaniment every seven and 37 minutes past the hour.

This attractive clock stands in the downtown area of Dillwyn, Virginia. I haven't located any historical information about it, but it is located a short distance from the train station, which is partially visible behind the tree in the background.
The clock is from a 1920\30s austin car. Set in a slab of oak with some forged iron oak leaf and acorn embellishments
Mechanical clocks were invented in Western Europe in the medieval period and were first used in cathedrals and churches.
At the "British Museum" Rooms 38–39 trace their development from these earliest examples to complex and highly decorative domestic clocks, marine chronometers, mass-market designs and modern precision time-keeping.
Many of the hundreds of exhibits on display are working and can be heard ticking, striking and chiming the hours.
The story of the watch is also be traced from the early 16th century to modern quartz precision and radio control.
Worth a visit if you have the time.......
