How the clocks go back... Cambridge style!
The Corpus Chronophage Clock – designed by inventor, horologist and @CorpusCambridge alumnus Dr John C Taylor OBE – is probably one of the most photographed clocks in the world. Located outside Corpus Christi Library, this striking sculptural Clock has no hands or numerals, but displays the time through blue LEDs in three concentric rings displaying the hours, minutes and seconds.

Fantastic match. High quality, great goals. 2-2 probably a fair result.
