The firm Brockbanks was established when the two brothers John and Myles Brockbank went into partnership in the early 1790`s. The business was continued by various members of the family until becoming Brockbanks & Grove when George Grove was taken into partnership in 1812, later becoming Brockbank and Atkins when George Atkins was taken into partnership after Grove`s death in 1814. The firm was well known for producing fine marine chronometers. The current lot retains its original dial finish but has had the numerals and signature retouched, however the general quality of the movement coupled with the design of the pillars suggests that this clock did originate from the workshops of Brockbank and Atkins.
