Drabble Esq by the employees and a few friends on his retirement after 45 years services as manager to Mess RS Yates Haywood & Co Effingham Works Rotterdam March 6th 1896” The clock is signed on the movement by Winterhalder & Hofmeier (W&H Sch). Winterhalder & Hofmeier was a German company that was known for making high quality timepieces for the English market. The clock has quarter strike features in which the 8 bells (or 5 gongs) play a tune. The 8 bells can be switched to “off” or has the option to play on 5 gongs instead if desired.
