Nottingham Emett Clock
The Emett Clock is a local landmark and has also served as a Meeting Place in the Nottingham City Victoria Centre since 1973.
Although it was removed for a substantial renovation in 2015, there was never really any doubt of it's place in the City Centre.
The 23ft High sculpture is an attraction and every day parents can be seen bringing their children to see the elaborate clock movement working, and
to throw coins into it's 'Fountain'.
The water powered clock has the official name, The Aqua Horological Tintinnabulator. but known locally, simply as the Emett Clock, after
the Sculptor, Rowland Emett, who was also a Cartoonist, Artist and Inventor and builder of many mechanical wacky inventions, including the car
featuring in the film Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.
And, although not many of his works are on display, some can be found in exhibitions in Canada and America.
This is just one of the many cultural attractions to be found in the city of Nottingham, and, perhaps, just another reason why so many people have
decided to settle in the City including McCrorys Removals Ltd, with the UK Ireland Hub based in the outskirts of Nottingham for decades now.
