Tyranny of Time

After a long run yesterday and with a poor forecast for this morning we became tourists and went to a museum in Manchester.

The People's History Museum is about the struggle for democracy in Great Britain and claims to have the most comprehensive collection outside of the British Museum and impressive it is.

The Museum is located in the Grade II listed, former hydraulic pumping station on the corner of the Bridge Street and Water Street designed by City architect Henry Price.

NLN has bit more about the museum, its building and, of course, another photo.



This is a sculpture depicting the tyranny of time with three people attempting to hold on to the hand of a clock and the fourth, a slave, is chained to the hand.

Aye well, weekend is about done and it will be back to that bloody clock tomorrow.
