The clock is supported by compressed bun feet and accompanied by a later ebonized wall bracket. 28 cm wide x 18 cm deep x 46 cmA John Austin of Shoreditch is recorded in Brian Loomes Watchmakers and Clockmakers of the World, pp 29 as reported in 1745 for a lost watch however it is likely that his business predates the date of the report mentioned by some years.The movement seems to be fully wound and runs freely for a few minutes and then the pendulum gives an erratic judder then slowly stops, I have been unable to get the clock to chime at the hours and seems unaffected by the Strike / Night lever, however on a pull of the repeat cord it will strike.I think the seat board is a replacement due to signs of holes and former woodwork is evidentThe backplate of the movement has some surplus holes that I can't adequately explain as the chiming system seems intact.The pull repeat activates chiming on the three smaller bellsThe movement has a cover over the top of the rod of the bob pendulum this metal is of a different colour and gauge.The case is in good order for its age it has some scratches and has had some restoration in the past the feet are not original
