It was slightly awkward to access. The pipe work is visually stunning, I wish I had paid more attention to it for pics!.
I'll post a pic of what it's connected to.

That is one ugly clock. Yet at the same time quite appealing....

I think it was in the nurses' block. And yes, it's quite ugly, but I kind of like it. If it hadn't been smashed I might well have taken it for my study :<

This is all that remains inside. The main workings must have been removable for maintenance.
Any horologists out there that know the working of old clocks

Clock outside Harvey's Funeral Directors, next door to the Creme de la Creme on St. Vincent Street. Very Art Deco methinks?
If no body's perfect, why practise?
