TitleOffice clock, found in the old drawing room office
DescriptionWooden clock with mottled cream dial, faded black roman numerals, and metal hands. The clock was found in the old drawing room office (that now forms part of Being Brunel) on 2015-11-13.11. Glazed face was smashed and the glass was removed and disposed of on 2021-07-21. Horology expert, Ross Allcock, thinks the dial has suffered water damage and that the clock would have originally had a pendulum. Allcock also stated that the clock is an engineered piece and that the dial and hands appear to be "off the shelf" pieces, typical of a company called Thwaite and Reed.
