This 18th Century movement appears original to the dial, as there are no extra holes on the dial or movement. The clock had a date wheel now missing, and the dial aperture has been soldered closed. The movement has a tab that would have tripped the date wheel (could be put back by a good craftsman) There is no weight nor pendulum (uses a single weight, suspended between the two trains). Both time and strike trains are complete and mechanically sound, but dirty, as-found. Height 10"
