Richard Colston was made Free of the Clockmakers Company by patrimony in 1682, he ceased to pay quarterage in 1702 and was believed to have died soon after this date. The current lot belongs to a rare group of table clocks which employ an unusual form of quarter repeat mechanism powered directly from the strike train (rather from a separate spring wound by pulling the repeat cord) which are discussed in Dawson, Percy G., Drover, C.B. and Parkes, D.W. Early English Clocks Pages 392-98, a very similar table clock by Colston is illustrated in Plates 564 (dial detail) and 663. The advantage of this layout is that it has freed-up enough space between the plates to allow for the provision of an alarm mechanism.
