Description: Turret clock mechanism in the tower of St Robert's parish church, Pannal, North Yorkshire, England. Possibly 19th-century. Measures over 3ft high and wide. Chimes the hour by a clapper on the tenor bell. Clock weights and winding cranks removed some years ago, and replaced with electric motor, but main mechanism still working. 6ft pendulum gives a tick of about one second.
