Re: The Arndale Clock

a message from Andy Plant today ie. April 1st 2011

Thanks for your interest in the clock. I don't know where it is, but I guess it is still in storage in a room in the Arndale centre, where it was put after dismantling. Have you contacted the Arndale to get the information?

I couldn't give you a cost for the reinstatement of the clock without having a look at what condition it now is in, are all the parts there, has it been damaged. Also where is it going? In it's old position, have they removed the foundations. If a new site is to be found a structural engineer would have to calculate and design a new foundation plinth and then builders construct it. I wish I could give you an easy answer but there are a lot of unknowns at this stage. I would love to see it up and running again.

Thanks again.

Andy

Perhaps he thought you were pulling our legs, when you posted it.
