SynchronIcity : From electric clocks, to master clocks, this has led to synchronisation of society. The stepping stones, from the first church bell to the atomic clock have had their role in the timing of society. This includes where clocks are used within equipment or instruments as a time base. Its essential that we preserve these stepping stones, that has led to modern society, so we remember the journey we took and where it will lead.
Street Clock: We are piloting the ‘Devon Clock Trust’, this provides a framework for the long term strategy of turret clocks. It involves public awareness and increasing their value within society, capturing information about them, assessing the current status an d providing a long term plan for them. If you have a turret clock, want it reviewed, then please contact us. We have a matrix of contacts that will assist you.
