The mystery of the missing hands on Kirkcaldy town hall clock.
Since the start of the year the clock had stopped, but in the last few weeks the hands were taken off the face of the clock. So when will we get our time back ?
The clock tower at Cliveden House, in Buckinghamshire, was built in 1861, and was built originally as a water tower - which still functions today!
Cliveden has been the home to the Prince of Wales, several nobles, and Nancy Astor, wife of the 2nd Viscount Astor, and is now a luxury hotel.
Preserved by the Crooker family, at Thomas Point Beach resort. One of the few remaining functioning clocks of this type -- the four faces light up, and it does the Westminster Chimes every quarter hour.
It's always fun to see something familiar in a museum. We had a clock like this one growing up and now I saw it in the Dallas Museum of Art!

York Minster is England's largest medieval cathedral and almost impossible to do justice to. It has an awesome presence that cannot fail to impress.
Uniquely the cathedral was spared the ravages of the Civil War that decimated the medieval art of most English cathedrals and churches, and it thus possesses the largest collection of medieval glass in Britain throughout most of it's vast windows.
Kern's Clock (1933), corner of Gratiot and Woodward, Detroit MI. [Built for Kern's Department Store which once stood at this corner. Kern's sold the store in 1957 and ceased operations in 1959; when the building was torn down in 1966, the clock was placed in storage until the 1970s. It was placed in storage again in 1998 for the construction of the Compuware Bldg., and restored to its current site in 2003.]
I have a vague memory of them being called clocks, defined as "Brit the downy spherical seed head of a dandelion".
