Latest Clock News

Welcome to my new blog where I'll be updating you on any new clocks or interesting finds.

This one is a fine three-train longcase which chimes every quarter hour on a nest of eight bells. I've only just bought it, so it awaits restoration but will be available from the end of June.

It was made by John Ellicott in about 1760 and is in a fine mahogany case which has brass stringing to the hood, trunk and plinth--one of the finest London mahogany cases of the 18th-century.
