This clock is a little different in that it is an American clock of “British Manufacture”. The company of JC Plimpton & Co Liverpool, were manufacturing clock case s for New Haven Clock Co of Connecticut USA from 1894 to the 1920s. At some point it seems that JC Plimpton may have finished the American movements/mechanisms, or even have produced them under licence, giving us the New Haven trademark with British Manufacture surrounding it. Either way, the clock has come from this stable. This was very late for this style of case in Ireland so it s safe to assume that it s circa 1905 or earlier.
This particular clock has a rosewood and mahogany veneered case, with inlaid metal stringing and mother of pearl discs. It is an 8 day clock, striking both the hour and the half hour on a bell.
