The clocks go back one hour at 2am on Sunday marking the end of the extended daylight period of the year – commonly known as winter time.
So, all the clocks and watches will need to be manually adjusted to the new time, however, the impressive new clock above Walter Bourke & Son at 8 Market Square is atomic design and will automatically adjust to winter time.
The fourth generation family business known as Bourke’s Jewellers recently added an enhanced feature on the town centre streetscape in Enniscorthy – the clock (seen here in our illustration) made and erected by Stokes of Cork and based on The Irish Times dial with a classic roman numeral layout.
Walter Bourke & Son was established in 1959, originally at 18 Main Street and founded by Walter and son Nicholas, and moved to 8, Market Square in 1987, formerly a female boutique known as Essie’s.
