Babworth All Saints

Clock

Clock face Clock mechanism

The clock was made by Sharpe of Retford. The exterior dial on the south side is inscribed:

WATCH AND PRAY TILL HE COME

The original mechanism survives, with both going and striking trains, but has evidently been altered several times with part inscribed 'W Cope 1909'. Smiths of Derby installed an autowinding unit in 1983, and a further auto correction device has been added since.
