Did yer know that StGeorges has four clock faces on its steeple and all but one shows the wrong time...the story is that it was to confuse the devil at midnight.

Nice one George. Any more of these?
I have heard that before George. Not sure where? but I have.
It wasn't off the fella charged with making sure it told the right time was it :rolleyes:

I've heard something similar about the clock tower in Chester which doesn't have a clock face looking towards Wales - something about not wanting the Welsh to see the time !!
I've probaly got that all wrong ! Does anyone know of this tale ?
I'm sure someone posted on Yo about it.
There's a st George's in Maghull.
Never heard of that one. Not showing the time to the Welsh.
That last photo is not Heyworth Street surely :002: :noid:
