A sale of clocks, barometers and scientific instruments at Dreweatts’ saleroom in Donnington Priory, Newbury, on March 15 includes this Victorian reformed gothic oak longcase wall regulator timepiece.
It has a large eight-day five-pillar movement, which probably comes from the workshop of James Condliff of Liverpool. It was made in the third quarter of the 19th century for Isaac Simmons, a retailer and maker of watches and chronometers based in Manchester.
