Video
of Winding the Clock - SMC200
This
is a video of the St Magnus Cathedral Clock being wound. The
mechanism of the clock is in "Cowper's Ha'" in the
tower.
The clock is wound every working day and requires approximately
eight turns. It is the duty of the Cathedral stone mason to
wind the clock.
It is also sometimes necessary to correct the time of the
clock as it can be up to ten seconds fast each day.
