Craig's Chain

Do two links constitute a chain? I was quite fascinated by the erosion on the concrete. This one's a couple of years old, but I wanted to try this out before I posted something new for New.

Ohhh... cheating already! I'll let it pass this time.

What gets hooked to this chain? I'm thinking horse, dog, wildebeest, or hot air balloon. Something that rotates it through a full range of motion.

I don't think anything's been hooked to it for some time. It's up on a wall at Cabot Tower on Signal Hill in St. John's. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cabot_Tower_%28Newfoundland%29).

At one point it may have held a guy wire, but I can't be sure. However now it sits free. That area gets some pretty heft winds. Coupled with tourists playing with it, I imagine that's where the erosion came from.
