A fine Victorian iron and brass hour-striking turret clock with four-legged gravity escapement J.B. Joyce and Company, Whitchurch, dated 1884 The movement of flatbed construction with high count lantern pinions and six-spoke crossings to the brass wheelwork, the going train with Harrison's maintaining power and regulated by four-legged gravity escapement with one-and-a-quarter seconds period compensated pendulum incorporating massive cylindrical cast iron bob, with white painted Arabic five minute setting dial signed JOYCE, WHITCHURCH and dated 1884 to centre, overhead dial take-off and cam for lifting the strike locking detent, the countwheel striking train with single-arbor warning and three-arm fly with adjustable flags, complete with crank winder, take-off and motionwork for two dials, weights and purpose-made welded oblong section steel stand fitted with a bell to left hand side, the flatbed frame 99cm (39ins) wide, 51cm (21ins) deep, the clock on frame 195cm (77ins) high by 135cm (53ins) wide by 76cm (30ins) deep overall. Provenance: The property of a private collector. Originally supplied for the church of St Paul, Kings Norton Parish, Moseley Road, Balsall Heath, Birmingham. A file compiled by the current owner containing details relating to provenance and other relevant notes (including a rare original trade publication) are included with the lot. The former firm of J.B. Joyce and Co. can trace its roots back to Shropshire village of Cockshutt where John Joyce is recorded in Loomes, Brian Clockmakers of BRITAIN 1286-1700 as working in around 1690. His descendant, William Joyce, relocated from Cockshutt to High Street, Whitchurch in around 1790. The workshop was then passed down subsequent generations with Thomas Joyce moving into the specialist field of turret clock making from1834. In around 1849 the firm adopted Lord Grimthorpe's design of gravity escapement for their larger clocks eventually settling on a four-legged version (as used in the current lot). The business subsequently expanded to became one of the most respected maker's of turret clocks of the 19th century winning many important commissions globally including Chichester and Salisbury Cathedrals, The Sydney Post Office clock and The Customs House, Shanghai. By 1902 the firm had outgrown its High Street premises hence a new purpose-built factory in Station Road was commissioned by Arthur Joyce. The business continued trading from this site until being sold to Smith of Derby in 1964 who allowed the firm to operate as a subsidiary. The factory was eventually closed in 2012 and is now used as a fine art auction house. The current clock was commissioned as a gift to the church of St. Paul by Thomas H. Barns in 1884 as 'a memento of my late uncle Mr. Thomas Barns..'. At the time of installation the church building was already thirty years old having built by Samuel Briggs in 1852-3 to a design by James Lyndon Perry to serve the district of Kings Norton parish. The tower was supplied with a forty-inch bell cast by C. & G. Mears in 1855 and the clock was configured to drive four large dials - one on each face of the tower. Unfortunately the church and tower was demolished in the 1970's to make way for modern residential development; the bell was re-used mounted in a steel campanile outside the new church hall built on part of the site. The clock as supplied was built to the highest specification utilising Lord Grimthorpe's four-legged gravity escapement and temperature compensated pendulum made with rod composed from zinc an iron tubes configured one inside the other to counter-act expansion through heat. The pendulum bob is particularly heavy and can be very finely regulated with the addition or subtraction of small weights to obtain an accuracy of within a five seconds a month. Now mounted on a purpose built steel stand the clock has been carefully restored under instruction by the vendor with the frame repainted in its original shade of light green and strike train provided with a hammer and bell mounted to the left hand side. As such the timepiece can either be used as a fascinating display piece or restored to its original purpose in a tower utilising the original take-off and motionwork (for two dials) included with the lot.

Provenance: Formerly the property of H. Alan Lloyd, sold on instruction of his widow at Sotheby's, London, 2nd December 1974 (lot 33); sold again at Antiquorum, Geneva in their sale titled THE ART OF BRITISH HOROLOGY 21st October 1995 (lot 13) for a hammer price of CHF 50,000 (approximately £32,000 including 10% buyer's premium). Literature: Illustrated in Lloyd, Alan H. OLD CLOCKS (first published 1951) Plates 46 C. and D. Joseph Knibb was born the fifth son of Thomas Knibb of Claydon, Oxfordshire in 1640. He is generally thought to have been apprenticed in around 1655 to his cousin Samuel Knibb in Newport Pagnell, before moving to Oxford circa 1662 (the same year that Samuel moved to London). Joseph initially struggled to trade in Oxford due to restrictions placed by the City authorities which were only relaxed on payment of a fine in 1668. It was about at this time that Joseph Knibb would have issued his copper trade tokens (an example of which was sold in these rooms 10th February 2009, lot 104 for £1,600 hammer) as well looking to undertake work to convert the turret clocks of St. Mary the Virgin and Wadham College to anchor escapement with long pendulum. In 1670 Joseph moved to London handing over the Oxford business to his younger brother, John. The reason for this move was probably to administer the estate of Samuel who is thought to have died by the summer of 1671. Joseph Knibb presumably took on Samuel's former workshop as by 1675 he was recorded as working from 'The Dyal' near Sargeants Inn in Fleet Street. By 1693 he had moved to 'The Clock Dyal' Suffolk Street, near Charing Cross. As Joseph became established in London his work became more individual/distinctive, often demonstrating an inventive and refined approach both in the detailing and specification of the movements and choice of case design. He is perhaps best known for his experimentation with alternative striking such as Dutch, Roman and double-six grande sonnerie as well as long duration clocks. In 1697 Joseph Knibb sold up the London business (presumably to Samual Aldworth, former apprentice of John Knibb of Oxford) and retired to Hanslop in Buckinghamshire where he died in December 1711. The current lot is one of four documented night clocks by Joseph Knibb with the other three being illustrated in Lee, Ronald A. The Knibb Family * Clockmakers pages 151-3. All of these examples are timepieces only and utilise the same ingenious system to indicate the time: The hour numeral traverses the 180 degree arched aperture in the dial plate past minute divisions denoted by small scallops cut into the upper edge and the quarters by large pierced Roman numerals above. This is enabled by having the Arabic hour numerals pierced in two secondary discs applied to the rear of the principal hour disc. As the hour disc revolves (once every two hours) these secondary discs are alternately advanced in one numeral increments via pins to the rear of each engaging with a flag attached to the lower part of the movement frontplate. This system ensures that the next hour appears to the left of the dial as the last disappears to the right (hence requires one of the secondary discs to be pierced with the odd hour-numerals and the other the even). This mechanism can also be seen on a longcase night clock, dating to around 1669, attributed to the Fromanteel workshop which is illustrated and described in Darken, Jeff (ed.) HOROLOGICAL MASTERWORKS pages 90-93. The existence of this slightly earlier clock suggests that this system was probably developed by the Fromanteels prior to Joseph's arrival in London in 1671. The advantage of this type of dial layout is that it negates the need to provide a separate chapter ring for daytime use as seen on other examples by makers such as Edward East and John Hilderson (see Dawson, Percy G., Drover, C.B. and Parkes, D.W. Early English Clocks pages 513-5, plates 759-63 for an example by John Hilderson). The engraved decoration and layout of the dial of the current lot is generally similar to the three other examples illustrated by Lee but has some detail differences - most noticeably in the design of the upper spandrel ornament. These differ in that the other three have decoration composed with a dog rose over pomegranate and other fruit whilst the current lot is engraved with foliate scrolls terminating with grotesque lions masks. The dog rose and pomegranate design is of a type seen on other standard clock dials by makers such as Edward East, as well as examples by Knibb made during his formative years in Oxford (including an ebonised architectural longcase clock which was sold in these rooms on Tuesday 11th March 2014, lot 143, for a hammer price of £230,000). From this it is perhaps appropriate to speculate that the dial of the current lot was most likely engraved by a different hand - probably the same individual responsible for an almost identical dial for a hour-striking night clock by Henry Jones illustrated in Early English Clocks on page 521 (plate 770). The case of the current clock is essentially 'of the period' and can be directly compared to one housing a standard table clock movement and dial by Edward East illustrated in Early English Clocks page 174 (plate 235). However alterations including the top being cut just below the lintel to make it removable (presumably to allow the lamp to vent when used at night) and the provision of an additional baseboard for the movement to sit-on would indicate that the case is not original to the movement and dial.
