| Description | The original mechanisms and dials of the two clocks were made in 1676 by Thomas Tompion. They were later sold by John Flamsteed's widow and made into long-case clocks. The replica mechanisms for these dials demonstrate the two-second swing of the original 13-foot pendulum, suspended above the clock. |
