Re: PESO - Three windows

PESOs: Church Clock

A friend of mine is the Keeper of the Clock in the church at Cropredy in Oxfordshire (a place well known to Cotty). He invited me to join him the other day when he went up the tower to do some maintenance work. Here's the clock mechanism: http://www.mitch.myzen.co.uk/CropredyClock1/slides/_IMG3406
