Hedley Wilson has dated this piece to the 1750s.
This clock has no place-name on the dial (often the case with this maker).
Watkin's movements were idiosyncratic and thus are often recognisable as his work. For example he often made clocks with iron pillars and dial feet instead of the more usual (and expensive) brass.
The oak case is of country style and consistent with the period and area, it measures 84" (2134mm)in maximum height.
