Father Time, Weather vane at Lord's Cricket Ground, Westminster, England.

The metallic Father Time weather vane depicts a figure holding a long scythe while standing atop the Mound Stand at Lord's Cricket Ground.

Herbert Baker designed this weather vane in 1926 as part of the original Grandstand before its relocation to the Mound Stand during renovations in 1996.

The weather vane represents time's passage at Lord's Cricket Ground, where it has become a recognized symbol for cricket enthusiasts worldwide.

Visitors can observe the weather vane from multiple viewing points around Lord's Cricket Ground, particularly from the main entrance and spectator areas.

The Father Time figure maintains its original position relative to wind direction despite being moved from its initial Grandstand location to the Mound Stand.
