Follow the Art Trail in Ormskirk Town Centre

A Festival of Tales is taking place in the small Lancashire market town of Ormskirk. 
Situated between Manchester and Liverpool, Ormskirk has a heritage of clock making, 
which has all but disappeard now.
The specially commissioned art-works on display around the town pay homage to it's clock-making history, and to the formidable clock tower, which has stood in the very centre of the town since 1876.


 Discover all of the art works (including my own), which feature Ormskirk's famous clock tower, situated around the town in shop windows, cafes and at the Chapel art gallery. 

Festival of Tales is open until January 2018
