Watching the Watchers

There is a constant stream of people (tourists) looking at the clock, that you can’t see in this photograph,

The location is the former entrance of a branch of Natwest Bank. Before that it was the London County Bank. Now it is the library of Corpus Christi College. And set into the doorway, behind glass, is the clock. It is a large gold-plated disc above which a giant grasshopper turns the escapement.

People love it. Tour guides take groups to look at it.

Should I take a photo of the clock?
