The Clock Tower was built in 1868 to mark the positioning of the original Mere Market House, a two storey building with a covered open ground floor for perishable market goods.

The Mere market ended in the 18th century but the upper floor, the ‘Croos Loft’, continued to be used as a school and it was here that the poet William Barnes had his first school in Mere. The market house was pulled down in 1863 and was replaced by the present Clock Tower which was opened by the Prince of Wales (later Edward VII) in 1868.

works from a gilbert wall clock, as they appeared when i took the face off.

I didn't take a picture of the clock before I cleaned it up. It's not perfect but looks good and works.

I found this on clearance at Sears and had to have it. It was the only one left, and looked like it was returned for some reason.

Hopefully there is nothing wrong with it and keeps decent time, because it's exactly what I was looking for for the living room. It's 2-sided, so it will require a unique place.

The hands on the clock stopped moving but the pendulum kept swinging. I thought it was kind of interesting.
