The Cotehele Clock

 

The clock located in an alcove off the chapel at Cotehele House, Cornwall, England, is thought to be the oldest continuously working clock in Britain and in the same location since the late 15^th century. The clock has no face, but rings a bell on the hour. It is one of the oldest examples of a verge and foliot, as opposed to a pendulum, clock movement.
