Architectural forms have always had a significant influence on the cases of clocks, but none more than this example of a clock in the front wall of a church. Note the dial has a heavy geometric overlay to give it the appearance of a leaded glass window. The well made bell strike movement is complete and sound, but would benefit from service.
