Provenance: Private collection, Hampshire (ref. C21); purchased at Christies, London, 26th November 1996 (lot 106) for £800 hammer. James Markwick senior is recorded in Loomes, Brian Clockmakers of Britain 1286-1700 as apprenticed in 1756 to Edmund Gilpin (through Richard Taylor); he initially worked at Croydon before returning to London where he gained his freedom of the Clockmakers' Company in 1666. In 1673 he took-over the former business of Samuel Betts at behind the Royal Exchange. Markwick had a turbulent relationship with the Clockmakers' Company - in 1676 he was fined for abuse of the Master at the Steward's feast and was often reprimanded for not attending court. James Markwick junior was born in Croydon in 1662 and was apprenticed to his father gaining his freedom (by patrimony) in 1692. He initially went into partnership with his father before gaining outright control of the business on the latter's retirement to Pevensey in Sussex in around 1700 (where he subsequently died in 1716). In around 1710-15 James Markwick junior went into partnership with his son in Law, Robert Markham, which lasted until the former's death in 1730. The business was subsequently continued by Markham and his successors with Francis Perigal senior (Freed 1746) joining the business in around 1750. During the latter half of the 18th century the firm of Markwick, Markham, Perigal specialised in producing clocks and watches for export to the Middle East including musical clocks.Cites Regulations Please note that this lot (lots marked with the symbol Ω in the printed catalogue) may be subject to CITES regulations when exported from the EU.

A fine and very rare oak architectural floor-standing case for a first period lantern clock Anonymous, probably second quarter of the 17th century The superstructure now with fixed glazed top and ogee-cornice over architectural arch-glazed apertures to three sides, the front and right hand side attached by iron hinges to each other and to the backboard, the right hand side also attached via hinges to the backboard which is now applied with a print of Britannia seated on a globe, each of the three faces with faceted keystone flanked by raised quadrant panel infill to the arch springing from blocks applied with hipped pads over uprights decorated with tapered decorative split-turned batons, the integral trunk resembling a Roman Doric pilaster with moulded capital incorporating frieze bordered with slender stepped-ogee moulding to lower margin, over a full-width door to front applied with stepped oval panel centred with a domed button and issuing vertical slender straps and horizontal rails applied with further hipped pads, the lower section with additional further thicker horizontal strap issuing shaped vertical extensions and applied with another faceted panel to centre surrounded by domed buttons, the field decorated with additional vertical half-round split-batons, the sides with decoration matching the front above elaborate double skirt base with ogee top moulding to upper tier and ledge over generous cavetto moulding to the lower, 193cm (76ins) high; the body of the trunk 24cm (9.5ins) wide by 28cm (11ins) deep excluding the applied decoration. Provenance: The base of the backboard applied with a paper label inscribed in ink Cap t De Burgho Hodge, Exleigh, Tiverton. Online records of THE LONDON GAZETTE have two entries relating to Captain Edward DeBurgho Hodge: 24th May, 1861 Light Dragoons, Lieutenant De Burgho . Edward Hodge , from the 15th Foot, to be Lieu- tenant, vice Samuel Adams, who exchanges. 9th July, 1880 William Hodge , Gage John Hodge , and De Burgho Edward . Hodge , carrying on business in copartnership at Devonport, in the county of Devon, as Bankers, under the style or firm of William Hodge , William Chapell Hodge , and Company, the Devonport Bank, was, on the 1st day of July, 1880, dis- solved, by mutual consent. In addition to these The Plymouth and West Devon Record Office holds a document dated 31st July 1880 indicating the release (with later endorsements - 365/50) of De Burgho Edward Hodge of Sandwell, Harberton, Captain of the 12th Lancers. From these records it would appear that Edward DeBurgho Hodge was related to WillIam Hodge of the Devonport Bank, and, after serving in the Light Dragoons (up to 1861) and the 12th Lancers, entered into a new banking partnership with William Hodge in 1880. Exleigh, Tiverton and Sandwell, Harberton are both late Georgian Neo-Classical houses; Exleigh being a substantial Villa and Sandwell a Country House. The current lot appears to be a remarkable survivor which, on stylistic grounds, would appear to date to before the Civil War. The overall form is purely architectural conceived as a glazed arched loggia resting on top of a Roman Doric inspired pilaster. The strapwork decoration to the trunk follows that Jacobean architectural practice with similar designs often seen on fireplace surrounds. A good example dating from the 1630 s which exhibits comparable decoration (to the jambs of the overmantel) can be seen in the great chamber at Doughton House, Gloucestershire (illustrated in Cooper, Nicholas THE JACOBEAN COUNTRY HOUSE on page 105). In addition to this, details such as the applied faceted/hipped panels and buttons together with the tapered split turnings (flanking the glazed arched apertures) can be compared to those applied to an enclosed deed chest made by the joiner Francis Bower for the Shrewsbury Draper s Company in 1637 (illustrated in Chinnery, Victor OAK FURNITURE, The British Tradition on page 53, Figures 2:5 and 2:6). Evidence in the upper and lower rails of each of the arch-glazed panels indicate that when originally made the arches were narrower (i.e. were essentially semi-circular in profile). Indeed at some point the arches appear to have been widened by a little over an inch by inserting extensions into the rails at their centres. The original form of the loggia would have therefore been narrower and hence perhaps more suited to the proportions of a standard lantern clock. The overall appearance of the case in its original form would have therefore perhaps served to enclose a lantern clock and display it in almost a reliquary manner elevated on a Classically inspired pedestal. In addition to this the current lot has seen some further relatively minor repairs and additions over the years including a replacement top panel incorporating glazed insert and skirting around the base. The latter has the appearance of being executed by an estate workshop during the mid 19th century and adds to the overall country house feel of the case. The numerous split half-round batons applied to the front and sides of the trunk may also be early additions. Notwithstanding these observations the overall the structure of the case appears to have survived in remarkably sound original condition. When considering the dating evidence above (which strongly suggests a date of around 1630-40) the current lot would appear to have been made during the first period of lantern clock production. Indeed relatively detailed investigation by the cataloguer has failed to identify other floor standing lantern clock cases that can be dated to prior to the Civil War. With this in mind it would therefore be reasonable to suggest that the current case could well be the earliest surviving English purpose made floor-standing case for a domestic clock, and, as such, would make the perfect companion for the previous lot.
Ω A George III mahogany mercury stick barometer Cately and Company, London, early 19th century With open triangular pediment above chevron bordered glazed door enclosing rectangular silvered Vernier scale calibrated in barometric inches and with the usual observations to the right opposing Fahrenheit scale spirit thermometer to the left, the upper margin signed Cately & Co.

A Pulsynetic C69 programmable electromagnetic impulse timer Gents, Leicester, mid to late 20th century With black painted cast iron frame applied with electromagnetic slave mechanism shunting a large diameter twenty-four hour wheel drilled with holes positioned at five-minute intervals to circumference to take pins to engage with the timing contacts, with day-of-the week disc to allow de-activation over the weekend and mercury short-interval timer, set along with connection terminals within a glazed-front wooden case with lift-off cover incorporating front door, applied with paper label incorporating serial number 120778 in ink to the inside of the left hand side and an ivorine button inscribed MAKERS, GENTS, OF LEICESTER to lower front rail, 45cm (17.75ins) wide. Gents of Leicester were founded by John Thomas Gent in 1872 and specialised in producing electric timepieces principally for semi-public and industrial use alongside fire alarm systems, telephones, transformers and related products. The firm initially operated from Faraday Road, Leicester, later (after WWII) moving to nearby Kibworth. They were bought-out by the multi-national organisation, Chloride, in 1981. The current lot would have almost certainly served as an automatic bell ringer in a school or factory. The mechanism would be driven by impulses directly from a master clock every thirty seconds causing the large diameter twenty-four hour dial to rotate. Pins inserted within the circumference of the ring would engage with contact points at programmable intervals which, in-turn, would cause a circuit to become open for a short period of time (dictated by the controlled flow of mercury in the short duration timing switch). The day of the week dial allows the mechanism to be disabled over the weekend.

Provenance: The rear of the current lot is applied with a brass plaque indicating that it was presented to the Rev. W.G. Buckle of Meole Brace (Shrewsbury) on 6th April 1881.
