Worboys Antiques has dated this piece to the 18th Century.
Current Condition
The case is in excellent untouched original condition, with its original working lock and hinges. The dial has been resilvered in the past and does show signs of wear. The movement has been fully serviced and is guaranteed for 12 months. On close inspection we have ascertained that the clock originally had a verge escapement, was converted to anchor in the 19th Century, then converted back to a verge escapement, although not recently as it now shows signs of wear. It is guaranteed for 12 months.
