Cockerel Weathervane

The origins of the association between cockerels, or roosters and churches is believed to have begun with a passage in the bible stating that 'St peter would deny Jesus thrice before the rooster crowed'. As such, the Cockerel was adopted as a symbol & placed on church roofs. Over the years the tradition of having a Cockerel weathervane continued, though it's meaning diluted. Our Cockerel weathervane is designed and made in the UK; a great way to top off any building.

Functionality and style

The shape of a Cockerel is actually ideal for a weathervane sail - their large tail being perfect for catching the wind, so there may be a practical element to this classic weathervane as well. All of Black Fox Metalcraft's weathervanes are designed carefully so that they function perfectly as a weather reading tool - many weathervanes found online do not. To order, please choose the required size, fixing and arrow, & feel free to ask any questions.
