Following on from our revelation that pigeons are to blame for the malfunctioning of the Triangle clock, bitternepark.info has now learned that experts have been unable to restart it following a cleaning operation.

We’re told a crack council pigeon removal team carried out the clean-up, removing the birds and installing mesh to prevent them re-entering the tower.

But a clock specialist from Smith of Derby was unable to restart the mechanism due to extensive levels of pigeon poo in the works!

The specialists are now quoting to dismantle, clean, oil and put the clock back together again.

Until then, it seems time will continue to stand still at the Triangle.
