A good early English mahogany dial clock of traditional pegged case form. It has a thin outer turned wooden rim and a very heavy cast bass stepped shaped bezel. The convex dial is signed by the maker, W. Kirk of Stroud. The 8 day fusee movement has shaped plates an anchor escapement and a large brass bob pendulum with a shaped rod.
