Found this at a national a few years ago and finally completed it. It appears to be English,late 19th or early 20th century.It has a detented escapement mounted to the front plate.The pendulum is one half seconds so the escapement is released every second. Very accurate.Any other information out there?

Doug,
English clocks are not my forte so I cannot add information here. I do, however, like the lines of that clock. Very pleasing. Great clock! I would like to learn more about it also.

Doug,
Is that movement held up by the pillars (I can see one on the left.) or is it attached to the backboard? Or both?
