A nice early georgian longcase clock by John Seymour of Wantage, 10" square brass base with 4 divisions between the numerals on the inner part of the chapter ring. Matted centre to the dial with no decoration. A good clean 8 day movement in perfect working order. Keeps perfect time. Brass face lead filled pendulum bob.

A perfect cottage antique clock with the dimensions

It appears that John Seymours Father and Grandfather were both clock makers and blacksmiths of the same name. One of them we believe the grandfather made the faceless chiming clock at St Augustines church in East Hendridge near Wantage. The faceless clock made in 1525 is thought to be the oldest clock in the country that is still in use.
