DaveH Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Now where is this clock, it meets Dave's requirements because in is not working, therefore dodgy However I don't think it has stopped, even though its not going I don't think it was even there last Sunday. It not even been there a week and it's not working. Is it a real clock, or is it just a sign, like a pub sign for a pub called "The High Noon" which is intended not to be working?

SteveHB Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Most of our members will have walked past this working clock at some time, some will have passed it numerous times. It is five minutes fast, but where is it ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is five minutes fast, but where is it ? Is it on the balcony walw way of the Castle market. I don't know if there is one there, this is just a wild guess.

DaveH Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Is it on the balcony walw way of the Castle market. I don't know if there is one there, this is just a wild guess. I was thinking exactly the same UKL. The apparent interior wall and extended mounting bracket seem to indicate this. The soon to close Castle Market has several clocks which look like this, for example this one Not so sure of the EXACT location of Steve's one though, - but it does look like the Castle Market ones.

Stuart0742 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 This clock is now working, all the building work has finished, inside things are on different shelves and it bigger This building was refurbished in 2012, has a large carpark all in what at one time was a quarry. This company was a number of similar buildings in Sheffield, not sure if they have clocks though. on a main route into Sheffield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Stuart, I woud guess that narrows the answer down to somewhere on the A61, south of the City? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveHB Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Correct This one took some guessing :-) That was from October 2012 Stuart. Think it's about time we had a clean sweep, this one should be easy to locate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't think I've ever seen it, though the building is reminiscent of those seen on once frequent walks down Queens Road & London Road Heeley End. Is it tucked away around the Lowfield / Broadfield / eastern parts of Highfield area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good try, but incorrect area, you need a clean sweep on an incline, around 1.5 to 2 miles, to the N/W of Lowfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically, probably not a very good try! Well, I've passed under that hundreds of times and never seen it so can understand why its not so obvious - especially if you overestimate the crypticism. Can also now see why the thread has, perhaps, lost some of its Hype?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
