Lot 176
Barber, Winsters, a late 18th Century oak longcase clock, having a 12" square brass dial with silvered Roman and Arabic chapter ring, set moon phase, date aperture and 8 day striking bell, two train movement, associated. The case with moulded cornice above column supports and a lancet trunk door, on box plinth base, 79"h x 22w

The movement is associated to the dial- there are extranious holes to the front and back plates. it is missing pin holes to the dial. The arbours are not aligned. The date aperture is blanked off. The case has both chips and cracks - it requires repolishing and is not good quality. There are no weights or pendulum with this clock. Overall, this lot is poor/fair.
