Black Forest Three Train Automata Clock


I had a very good trip to  the National Trust's Snowshill Manor on Friday to deliver this rather nice three train automata clock. The clock is a black forest clock which  had not been working for a fair time. The striking is quarter striking  on four bells and the hour is also a struck on a bell.  The bell striking is a carried out  with nice carved figures sadly some have been a bit damaged but  after a bit of work I managed to free them up and get them to do what they should do. We managed to make a recording of the bell striking, and I hope it will be on the Snowshill's blog.
