Cork’s famed Shandon clock may be out of action for some time

Cork City Council has warned that it will take some time to restore the city’s iconic Shandon clock to full working.

The council issued a statement yesterday after Irish Examiner reported how the clock mechanism behind the famous ‘four-faced liar’ on the landmark St Anne’s Church steeple had ground to a halt.

Local election candidate Barry Keane spotted that the famous clock had stopped working.
