A clock, made by Benjamin Downs, was installed in the church tower in 1802.

It had an inscription that read:

Benj. Downs, Fecit
John Durham, Vicar, 1802
Joh Rogers, Robert Hitch, Churchwardens

Cast iron dials for the clock costing £66 were donated by Henry Smith, Esq. in 1872.

The current clock has an electric mechanism.
