Well done Kipax. Thinking about the problem of where to site the clock, there are not many possible venues where public access and supervision can be guaranteed. Here is my list; Accrington Library(I think it would look great in the children's section), Hyndburn Sports Centre, Accrington Market Hall, Accrington and Rosendale College, the Post Office on Abbey Street, or maybe ASDA could give it a home. There would also be the possibility of insisting that it form part of either the Broadway revamp or the new Rail/Bus Station development.

Failing that, could we not ask HBC to house it in a glass box of some description, in the same manner as the war memorial from the Sacred Heart? If they could do that then the possible locations are vastly increased.
