Circa 1748 he began numbering his clocks, engraving the serial number on the movement frontplate (and sometimes with the date of manufacture alongside). His clocks can therefore be dated using these numbers. Barber numbered to the mid 1400s until 1800 when his successor (and former journeyman) Henry Philipson continued the system. This clock is illustrated fig 7/10 in Loomes (Brian) Clockmakers of Northern England, pg 83-84. It is sold together with a Clock Magazine dated 1982 in Brian Loomes has written an article about this clock, and a service receipt dated 1981.
