Local Clockmakers
A number of clock dials have been seen and photographed, many in antique shops to whose owners I am grateful. The clockmaker's name on these dials is usally accompanied by their place of work, and is evidence about that place. 
NB: nearly all clock photographs have been moved into the Lakes persons database, LAKESPER.mdf, and will no longer show on the lists below, but will be included in the gazetteer entry for the relevant place. As yet, the person database is not part of the Lakes Guides website. | ||
