Father Time Weathervane
At Good Directions Ltd we have a wide variety of Weathervanes on offer. Whether these be bespoke one-off items designed specifically for the customer or standard stock items, we are proud of the magnitude we can offer our customers. One of our most popular repeat items is our ‘Father Time’ Weathervane.
This is a replica of the famous Lord’s Cricket Ground Weathervane, which has proudly sat atop the cricket ground since gifted by the architect of the Grandstand back in 1926. Good Directions has had a working relationship with Marylebone Cricket Club for over a decade now and are the proud official manufacturers of the Weathervanes, which are sold on the official Lord’s website.
These Weathervanes are cut out on an industrial Waterjet machine, from 3mm Mild Steel, before being powder coated in black. To complete the look each weathervane is then hand finished with gold on the arrow, ball and scythe, as well as the letters of the directs below exactly as they are on the original.
All our Weathervanes have 3 mounting kits available to you. The first is a simple post mounted bracket, the second a gable mounting kit, which is for fitting the Weathervane on the side of a building and has a 100mm projection to pass by any protruding roof tiles etc. The third is a roof mounting kit, which as the name suggests, is for fitting directly onto the ridge of your roof.
As mentioned above we also offer bespoke Weathervane manufacturing, these can be from photos you may have, or even just drawn from scratch. It’s our genuine pleasure here at Good Directions to see your wildest dreams come to fruition and we take pride in the fact that our products can be tailored to our customers specific needs.
