From Adam Smith:

"St Nicks is the largest parish church in the UK and yet its clock has
been stopped for weeks. It is always a bit weird being fast or slow or
several hours ahead." UPDATE: As of March 2009, St. Nicholas's Church Clock has been overhauled and is running on time!

Little Underbank, Stockport, Cheshire, SK1 1LA
Once the premises of Jacob Winter, clock/ watchmaker, silversmith, jeweller & optician,
also a local councillor. Mid 19th century, now a Joseph Holts pub.
Clearly the publican can't afford to fix it, Holts (the landlords) seem to be dragging
their feet, apparently the town council isn't interested despite lots of money going into
improving the area. Surely something like that is a landmark and an attraction, a reason
for visitors to bother going up that hilly sidestreet, just because it's about to strike
the hour?
