This clock was presented to the city after a royal visit by Queen Anne in 1713. Yesterday's post focused on Queen Anne's statue next to it. The building the clock it is attached to was the Guildhall at the time, but it is now a bank and the current Guildhall can be seen here. The clock was taken down to be refurbished last year and was only but back up in December.
Very nice clock, must have been a pretty penny both to buy and then to restore also.
ReplyDeleteA really nice clock!
