The Weekly Photo Challenge asks for an illustration of time … and this is the tower of a 1911 mill that time has passed by.

“Though the mills of God grind slowly, yet they grind exceeding small; Though with patience He stands waiting, with exactness grinds He all.” – so says Longfellow.
Those windows look modern? I suppose they stagger to serve the spiral staircase.

It’s restored, but I sometimes forget the peak of “modernism” in architecture was the teens, twenties and thirties. Frank Lloyd Wright was a major influence around then, more than now.

How universal that clock is. In almost every country we’ve been in, a focal point in the community is a clock tower and then there is a bell tower to warn the people of fire.

Even little Uxbridge has a clock, though it’s on what used to be the Uxbridge Inn and is now a bank. Still, it’s the middle of town. You need a clock. I’m not sure why, but there has to be a clock in the town square.

Thank you. We have a lot of old mills, but not many which have working clocks in the tower. And this one has been rehabbed, so its facade is in great condition (but from behind it, you can see how old it really is)
