The Treasurer's House - York - the two-story clock by Beausoleil Star this if you like it!
This clock in the Treasurer's House in York runs for 30 hours on one winding but it is so long they had to cut through the floor so it goes into the hall below. The Treasurer’s House was once divided into three houses. In the late 1900s Frank Green, a wealthy industrialist and passionate collector renovated Treasurer’s House to showcase his collection in historical surroundings. The 13 period rooms house antique furniture, ceramics, textiles and paintings from a 300-year heritage. The 2,000 year history of the house includes a supposedly haunted Roman road below the cellar and Edwardian servants' quarters in the attics with 13 period rooms in between. It is in the period rooms they house the collection and tell the story of Frank Green.
