The clock on the hill in front of the Conservatory is back in working order. I’d gotten used to seeing its empty, handless face but recently noticed that the hands were back on and moving. I asked a gardener about it and she said that it had been repaired; apparently there’s a repairperson who specializes in these kinds of outdoor clocks. (I really want to talk to that person if anyone knows who it is!)
I've wondered about that clock! So good to get the mystery solved about how it keeps ticking, or not.
