Day 5: Medieval Clock in Salisbury Cathedral

Other than to see one of 4 remaining copies of the Magna Carta (which I wasn't allowed to photograph), one of the main reasons I wanted to come to Salisbury Cathedral was to see this clock. It was made in 1386 and still works! In fact, it's the oldest working clock in existence. Listen to the ticking — and Marilynn's faint narration — in the background.
