The main street running through the village of Abinger Hammer in Surrey has an instantly noticeable landmark: the village clock. Jack the Hammer, the little blacksmith on the clock, strikes the hour on his anvil. The clock was given in memory of the first Lord Farrer of Abinger Hall who died in 1899 and has a motto which states: “By me you know how fast to go!” The clock represents the iron industry and the role played by the county of Surrey in the industrial past.
