Must Visit Attractions in Cambridge "Must Visit Attractions in Cambridge" Created by: Cityseeker 7 Locations Bookmarked Corpus Clock "Behold the Time Eater" Whether in awe and wonder or shock horror, there is always a crowd of people staring at the fascinating Corpus Clock. This unique attraction is the brainchild of John C. Taylor, and was unveiled by physicist Stephen Hawking in 2008. At a cost of GBP1 million, it is an elaborate homage to the 18th-century traditional clock mechanics of John Harrison, inventor of the grasshopper escapement. The grasshopper, or chronophage (time eater), has been made literal, and now sits proudly on the gold plated clock face, which rotates to reveal the LED lights acting as hands. Love it or hate it, this is a sight to behold. Trumpington Street & Benet Street, Corpus Christi College, Cambridge Trinity College "The Largest Cambridge College" It is said that once, one could walk from Cambridge to Oxford crossing only Trinity land. Start outside the gatehouse on Trinity Street: Henry VIII founded the college in 1546 by merging two existing ones. His statue stands proud; below him, the coat-of-arms of Edward III, founder of one of the earlier institutions, and below that, the shields of his sons. Look by chelmsfordblue especially at the feathers of the Prince of Wales, still used by Prince Charles today, and a blank shield, Edward's youngest son died in infancy. To the right of the gatehouse, an apple descended from the tree which prompted Isaac Newton to make his theory of gravity. +44 1223 33 8400 www.trin.cam.ac.uk/ Trinity Street, University of Cambridge, Cambridge Scudamore's Punts "Popular Punt Hire Firm" Scudamore's Punts is unique among the punting stations, in that it has boats ready and available on both the upper and lower rivers (the Granta and Cam, respectively). Following the river upstream takes you past meadows towards Grantchester Village, while moving on downstream are the famous Backs (The), the college lawns that straddle the river. by Andrew Stawarz Chauffeured punts are also available. +44 1223 35 9750 www.scudamores.com [email protected] Mill Lane, Granta Place, m Cambridge by Andrew Dunn University of Cambridge "England's Ancient University" The University of Cambridge is a collegiate university, which means that while there is no sole university site, a cluster of 31 independent colleges lay scattered around different parts of the city. The university, founded in 1209, is deemed as the 'second-oldest university in the English-speaking world'. This prestigious university was born following a fallout of a group of scholars with the townspeople of Oxford, a disagreement that led to separation from the University of Oxford. The oldest, Peterhouse, was founded in 1284; the newest, Robinson, in 1977. The colleges come in all shapes and sizes: from small postgraduate Clare Hall, built in the late 1960s, to the grand Tudor expanse of Trinity. Every student is affiliated to a college, and each college is self-governing and financially independent. The university controls the faculties, subject departments, central administration (the Old Schools and the Senate House), museums, the printing press and the Botanic Garden. The university has nurtured a slew of scholars who have gone on to shine in their respective fields, including Stephen Hawking, Srinivasa Ramanuja, Sir Isaac Newton, and English playwright Christopher Marlowe. +44 1223 33 7733 www.cam.ac.uk/ [email protected] Trinity Lane, The Old Schools, Cambridge River Cam "Leisure River" The River Cam is the principle river that flows through Cambridge and eventually merges with the River Great Ouse. The river is easily navigable for small boats, making it a popular destination for leisure activities. Punting, canoeing, sailing or rowing down the river is an excellent and entertaining way to explore the famous Cambridge College "Backs". by ptwo Sections of the river are also good for swimming, especially during summer. River Cam is so much a part of the fabric of Cambridge, that a trip to the city is simply incomplete without a ride down at least a part of its length. +44 122 386 3785 www.camconservators.co.uk/ River Cam, Ely Anglesey Abbey, Gardens and Lode Mill "Historic House and Gardens" Anglesey Abbey Gardens & Lode Mill was built around 1600 on the site of an Augustinian priory. Much later, in the 1930s, it was the home to Huttleston Broughton, the first Lord Fairhaven. He supervised the creation of the wonderful gardens that include avenues of trees, flowerbeds and by Acradenia numerous statues. Inside the house, visitors can tour Lord Fairhaven's collection of artwork, including clocks and tapestries. Outside, footpaths lead away from the flowerbeds to the river and Lode watermill (working the first Saturday of each month). +44 1223 81 0080 www.nationaltrust.org.uk/ angleseyabbey@nationaltr Quy Road, Lode anglesey-abbey-gardens- ust.org.uk and-lode-mill Ely Cathedral "Norman Cathedral and Stained Glass Museum" Ely Cathedral is dubbed "the ship of the Fens,” as it looms out of the flat fen land landscape like a proud galleon on a calm sea. Ely itself was once an island surrounded by marshes. Following the Norman conquest of England, construction on this grand cathedral began (1081 to 1189). The by Andrew Stawarz original tower collapsed in 1322 and was replaced by the Octagon, an eight-sided gallery that remains today. The cathedral complex includes the Lady Chapel, England's largest chapel, medieval monastic buildings, a brass rubbing center and the Museum of Stained Glass. +44 1353 66 7735 www.cathedral.ely.anglica [email protected].

  • The Unilateral Twin Pivot Grasshopper Escapement
    NAWCC Chapter 161 Horological Science Newsletter 2014-1 www.hsn161.com THE UNILATERAL TWIN PIVOT GRASSHOPPER ESCAPEMENT David Heskin. 16th November 2013 All currently known written, illustrated and/or physical evidence attributable to John ‘Longitude’ Harrison (1693-1776) indicates that he invented and constructed three configurations of the grasshopper escapement: (1) The twin pivot. Almost certainly the first grasshopper escapement invented by Harrison and the first to be realised in physical form within his Brocklesby Park tower clock. The entry and exit pallet arms and their paired composers are mounted upon separate pivots, located to either side of the escapement frame arbor (crutch arbor) axis. This configuration could, therefore, be referred to as a ‘bilateral twin pivot’ or ‘BTP’ grasshopper escapement. Recent analysis1 has revealed that the deliberate incorporation of matching entry and exit start of impulse torque arms and matching entry and exit end of impulse torque arms is not only possible and arguably desirable, but is also of invaluable assistance during the geometrical design process. (2) The single pivot 2. Created by Harrison for his early wooden longcase regulators and his final land-based regulator, now commonly referred to as the ‘RAS Regulator’. Optimised in his 1775 manuscript ‘Concerning Such Mechanism…’ (CSM)3 and an untitled escapement illustration, catalogued by the Worshipful Company of Clockmakers as ‘MS3972/3’. The entry and exit pallet arms and both composers share a single pivot, located on the entry side of the escapement frame arbor axis. All realistic single pivot grasshopper escapement geometries unavoidably incorporate mismatched torque arms and asymmetrical entry versus exit impulse.

  • Tranquility Clock Kit and Plan Manual
    The Tranquility Clock Copryight © 2014 Jeffrey A. Schierenbeck Introduction For hundreds of years, mechanical clocks have served as functional timekeepers. During that time, clocks have also been treasured for their artistic and aesthetic value. For most clocks, the artistry involves the shape and ornamentation of the clock’s exterior case. However, these cases hide the inner beauty of the clock–the clockwork mechanism. The Tranquility clock is a wooden gear clock that is a functional timekeeper with an open frame which exposes its mechanical elements. All the moving parts are clearly visible. It is intriguing to watch as the seconds and minutes tick away. Of particular interest is its ‘grasshopper’ escapement. It is based on the famous escapement which was developed by John Harrison. In the late 1700's, Harrison devised the grasshopper escapement in his quest to make an accurate, seaworthy clock and claim the “Longitude Prize”. The goal of his articulated escapement was to eliminate sliding friction at the pallets, which was a significant source of error in the days when effective lubrication had not been developed. It is enjoyable to see and hear this clock running. However, the most enjoyable part of this clock is the satisfaction gained by assembling the clock yourself, perhaps adding your own creative touches. And, through the process of building the clock, you will gain an understanding of the principles that govern how a clock works, including the operation of the unique grasshopper escapement. We truly hope you enjoy building your clock. Please contact us if there is any way that we can help you with your clockmaking project.

I remember thinking I was very smart at school – until I got to university – when I realised that there were a lot of people much smarter than me! However, after a long career, I’m now immensely proud to be considered one of Britain’s greatest inventors. I returned to live on the Isle of Man 40 years ago after running the highly successful Otter Controls business in Buxton, Derbyshire. Many of the hundreds of patents that I hold are for domestic appliances, thermostats and electrical equipment. Probably my most famous invention is the thermostat controls for the cordless kettle, patented and used throughout the world. It’s been calculated that over two billion of my bi- metal blades – used in thermostats to switch off kettles – have been produced since their invention in the 1970s. Strix, a company I founded, now holds four Queen’s Awards, three for Export and one for Innovation, granted for my 360-degrees cordless kettle connector.

Chapter 2 A Brief Review of the Mechanics of Watch and Clock According to literature, the first mechanical clock appeared in the middle of the fourteenth century. For more than 600 years, it had been worked on by many people, including Galileo, Hooke and Huygens. Needless to say, there have been many ingenious inventions that transcend time. Even with the dominance of the quartz watch today, the mechanical watch and clock still fascinates millions of people around the, world and its production continues to grow. It is estimated that the world annual production of the mechanical watch and clock is at least 10 billion USD per year and growing. Therefore, studying the mechanical watch and clock is not only of scientific value but also has an economic incentive. Never- theless, this book is not about the design and manufacturing of the mechanical watch and clock. Instead, it concerns only the mechanics of the mechanical watch and clock.
