It's closing down for a couple of months for renovation and some people are worried it won't be called the Wheat Sheaf when it reopens.

I'm guessing the Wheat Sheaf is a pub John............there is a pub of that name near where I love and suspect there will be hundreds (if not more) with the same name all over the place!

I quite like the look of the clock...........simple but stylish in my opinion. The rest of the frame is full of a mish-mash of lines, shapes and angles which works very well.

Nicely done sir!

John FitzGerald replied to Keith Burton:

Thanks, Keith. The Wheat Sheaf is indeed a pub, and Toronto's oldest -- all of 175 years old. I believe some UK pubs go back to the first millennium. I agree -- the clock is way cool.

Great composition and lines, John. Quite a tangle of wires too, esp in the PiP

John FitzGerald replied to tiabunna:

Thanks, George. This is a streetcar/tram intersection, so wires galore. All part of Toronto's retro look. They finally managed to get all the streetcars fitted with pantographs recently so Toronto is slowly moving into the 20th (sic) century.
