Charles Clay, who originated from near Huddersfield, gained his Freedom of the Clockmakers Company prior to 1716. In 1723 he was appointed Clockmaker in His Majesty`s Board of Works and in 1731 supplied the turret clock for the gateway at St. James`s Palace. He specialised and experimented with musical mechanisms and is perhaps now best known for his organ clocks. One of which now resides at Windsor Castle which was acquired from his widow three years after Clay`s death in 1743. Another incomplete organ clock was also acquired around this time for Augusta wife of Frederick, Prince of Wales this clock was subsequently completed by George Pyke and now resides at Kensington Palace.
