Footnotes:
Provenance: Single family ownership for over 90 years, bought in Cornwall in the 1930's.

Edward East (1602-1696) was the youngest Assistant to the court of the Clockmakers Company on its formation in 1632. During his time in office as Master, in 1645 and again in 1653, he held meetings at his premises in Fleet Street, at the 'Musical Clock'. In 1660 he was appointed Chief Clockmaker to the King. He quickly adopted the pendulum on its introduction and made some of the finest clocks of the immediate post 1657 era. During his long working life, he took on eight apprentices: Thomas Wolverstone, Robert Hanslapp, Walter Gibbs, Edward Wagstaff, Henry Jones, John East, Adam Pearce and Richard Bellinger. The London Gazette of January 22nd-26th 1690 records that a Mr East was working at 'the Sun outside Temple Bar'. He died a rich man and when Henry Jones, one of his previous apprentices, was Master of the Company, East gave the Company a gift of £100; to his credit, Jones matched this sum.

The style of the current clock movement is very much based on earlier period practises, with tall plates and latched pillars. It is possible the movement may have been left over from a batch made in the East workshop some years beforehand and later sold with a 'modern' 12 inch square dial.
