A clock has existed since the mid-18th century, as evidenced by a clock plate inscribed 'Hutchinson, Worksop, Fecit 1753.'

The clock is a turret mechanism with going and striking trains, located in the south tower, and a plaque attached reads:

ANNO DOMINI 1972
RESTORED
BY
GRAHAM
LOVE
WORKSOP

The clock tower bell is modern, as detailed by a memorial in the south aisle which reads:

IN GRATEFUL MEMORY
OF
HARRY RICHARDSON
1921-1971
CHURCHWARDEN

the clock tower bell was installed
by his family and friends
in 1972

A further memorial, adjacent, attests to the later renovation of the clock:

The Tower Clock Was Restored
And Automated In 2013

IN LOVING MEMORY
OF
ERNEST MARSHALL
