From research, this clock is said to have been illustrated in an article first published in Archaeologia Aeliana in 1925 in a paper titled North Country Clockmakers of the 17th, 18th and 19th Centuries written by C.LReid, a Newcastle Goldsmith & Jeweller (Trading as Reid & Sons). The appendix which first appeared in the 1925 book states: ''Another 365 day clock, made about 1770, was purchased by the Newcastle Corporation in 1885 and set up in the Mayor's Chamber, in the Town Hall''. The article is said to include a few details of this clock and a few notes about the clockmaker John Walker. John Walker from London set up business in Newcastle Upon Tyne about 1754 and died in 1773. He is recorded as advertising himself as a clockmaker making all types of complicated mechanisms such as perpetual month going clocks and clocks with tidal dials. He is remembered for many good clocks and also an invention which he spent eight years perfecting, which was a wheel cutter that cut and rounded wheel teeth. Another feature of Walker's unusual clocks is that the strikework has a vertical worm-driven fly. 14.10.19 Case with cracks and chips in parts, trunk door with cracks, glass is cracked, plinth with inlay missing in parts, dial is discoloured and stained, movement looks complete, with pendulum and two weights.

He was apprenticed to his cousin Samuel in Newport Pagnell circa 1655. In 1662 Samuel moved to London and Joseph moved to Oxford where he set up premises in St. Clement's, outside the city. Around 1665/6 he moved to Holywell Street, within the city bounds. Once his business was inside the city walls, Joseph faced a level of opposition to becoming a Freeman of the City, finally granted to him in 1668.In 1670 he moved to London, most likely to take over his cousin Samuel's workshop, following his death. Admitted to the Worshipful Company of Clockmakers, he set up business at the Dyal, near Serjeant's Inn in Fleet Street. He was elected as a Steward of the Clockmakers' Company in 1684 and Assistant in 1689. He retired in 1697 and went to live at his estate in Hanslope, Buckinghamshire, where he died in 1711. The simple elegance of Knibb's dial here recalls the celebrated Admiral Byng Knibb, which dates to circa 1672-75. The only dial variance is the addition of a seconds ring on the Byng.
