This sinister creature sits atop a new and magnificent timepiece that has been unveiled recently at Cambridge Corpus Christi College.
Called the Chronophage, or time eater, it is a mechanical clock based on the grasshopper escapement invented by John Harrisson over 200 years ago.
The creator of this impressive 1.5m diameter clock is Dr John Taylor, who spent 5 years, and a million pounds of his own money making it.

The huge golden face was engineered from a single sheet of stainless steel that was moulded by precisely-controlled explosions under water. The clock sometimes plays tricks on the observer, occasionally pausing, running unevenly and even going backwards. All this is managed through mechanics rather than any fancy computer control.
