Little Ben is a miniature clock tower found outside Victoria Station, London. In design it mimics its much larger cousin, the Westminster clock tower colloquially known as Big Ben. The following poem is carved on Little Ben:
"My hands you may retard or may advance,
My heart beats true for England as for France."This refers to a plan to run the clock only on Daylight Saving Time, meaning it would be correct for England in the winter months and France in the summer. However, Little Ben follows British Summer Time in summer and Greenwich Mean Time in winter, like all other clocks in the UK. The clock was unveiled in 1892, with the idea that those rushing for trains at Victoria would be able to see the time as Big Ben was not visible from the station. An interesting myth about Little Ben is that it was designed as a ventilation shaft for a nearby underground lavatory. #time #railway #railways #London #gothic #history #clocks #architecture #weird #folklore #urban #psychogeography

Tonight we shine a light into the forgotten corners of history to explore a quiet, essential rhythm; the often-overlooked role of the people who wound the parish clocks, and the precious gift they gave, the burden of the awareness of time.

My other hobby. I'm currently servicing a 1930's German mantel clock. Three train clock movements are always a bit more of a pain to reassemble. I keep all the parts on a "wheel board" that I made to keep things organized. On a two train American clock I usually don't bother, as it's much easier to keep track.

Photobomb - a #pigeon that (relatively unusually for King's Lynn specimens) is actually energetic enough to bother with flying sneaks into a shot of this extraordinary #timepiece on one of the towers of #KingsLynnMinster (picture taken from a location on the riverbank).

I like clock designs. A pneumatic 7 segment clock with air powered "memory" is a new one.
