Chris,
That's interesting.
Does the clock have a face on the tower, or
does it just toll on the hour and quarter hours.

Yes, there's a face. Just 1 on the west face of the tower. Most remiss

Thanks Paul. It was made in 1831. The date's on the quarter dial and
it's contemporary with the rest of the clock.
One day I'll go back and see if the rope can be moved out of the way

What a wonderfully archaic mechanism, well photographed by you.

What can be asserted without
Chris,
On the tower roof with only a 1 foot parapet - yes quite scary.
You'd need some extra shake reduction.
