The Millennium Clock
This is the Millennia clock in Ballon village. It is of unique design and the following explain its creation. The two vertical stones represent the two millenium periods married together and yet separate. The right hand section suggests the figure 2 and the three zeros can be picked up in the clock face, the fountain sphere and the logo. The sphere housing the fountain also represents the sun and the radial lines cut into the stone represent the rays of the sun. A Christian dimension is given in the left hand circle as the relative positions of the 2000 and the AD give the image on the Celtic Cross.
