I think it's time . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . to visit this exhibition now showing at The Ropewalk Barton upon Humber, before it closes, last day today, Sunday.
Luke Jerram is the artist, his name has cropped up before on this blog. He was the one who did the gigantic model of The Moon, which I saw when I was on holiday at Orkney.
The title of this clock exhibition is Harrison's Garden. John Harrison was a carpenter and clockmaker who invented the marine chronometer, a device for calculating longtitude while at sea. He was born in 1693 and at age five, moved to Barrow upon Humber, a couple of miles down the road. In 1717 he created a clock with a mechanism made almost entirely from wood. It is signed and dated by Harrison.
The clocks here have been donated and will be sold at auction to help raise money for a statue of John Harrison, to be sited in Barrow Marketplace.
A fascinating collection, it's hard to pick a favourite, but as usual I favour the colourful and quirky.
