pretty mahogany cases and interesting dials, they no longer concern us,
since these had become ready made. Though he taught his sons the trade,
they did not succeed, though one, Richard, started in opposition to his
father, but the name died out. Holt’s contemporary was Henry Goodwin,
who was in every way his equal. Other rivals were William Weaver,
Richard Hardy, Hardy and Son, George Ganter, and John and James Priest.
William Weaver was very fond of a style of dial representing a ship
in full sail on a painted ocean, the vessel rising and falling with
the swinging of the pendulum. Ganter came to Newark as a Dutch clock
pedlar, and settled there. James Priest made clocks in the old style,
and saw the art die out as a local industry. At his death, in 1889, he
left a cellar full of his earlier efforts, together with one or two
finished items, which must have been standing in the shop for fully
forty years.
About 1840 a lamentable, though not unexpected, event happened.
The cabinetmakers in Newark became tired of making cases for the
clockmaker, and the practice began of the clockmaker making movements
for their cases, and though in itself a regrettable feature, the
result has left us some really beautiful cases of this period, notably
by Cawthorn, Dalman, and Barber. The man who seems to have made
movements for them was John Baker (who worked at one time for Holt),
who cut his name and a number on the plate at the back of the dial.
In contradistinction to this procedure, we have to note R. Wade, of
Staythorpe, a village four miles from Newark, who combined the two
operations. A clock-case maker by trade, he went to London to work in
the piano-case trade and clock-case making, and there he conceived a
fancy for the mechanical side of clock making.[90] After some years he
returned to Staythorpe, and set up as a maker of both clock and case.
His work was of a very creditable character, and quite a number of
his clocks are in good working order in the neighbourhood. He was an
eccentric character, and left his mark in many little details about
the premises which he occupied at Staythorpe until his death.
No account of the local village clockmakers would be complete without
some mention of the Burrells of Collingham, a family who worked there
till about 1860 and then migrated to Sheffield, where they became
firmly established. However, the attraction of the mechanical side of
the trade was too strong for the mercantile side, and they embarked on
a system of time synchronisation which brought them ill fortune. Their
initials are stamped upon an old clock, probably made about 1800, at
Sutton-on-Trent church, showing that they did large as well as small
work.
Andrew Esdaile of Bingham is another notable character of the period
1830–1850. Though his clocks are not plentiful, the stories of him
and of his poetic inclinations are numerous. From the fact that he
eventually turned author, we may perhaps conclude that he paid more
attention to literature than to horology.
I have kept a careful watch for any effect Pitt’s Act of Parliament
may have had on our local industry, but I have not been able to trace
any at all, for our local products seem to be the same at that time
(1797–98) as before and after, and no Act of Parliament clock of local
origin has ever been under my notice, so we may conclude that the scare
which shook the trade was not felt here very severely. I have also
never seen a lacquered case with local works inside it, and, no doubt,
the choicer kinds of cases were not made by our local artists. When we
come to think that nearly all our early marquetry was done by the Dutch
inlay workers who followed William III. to England, and that probably
the lacquer decorated cases became, after a very few years, their work
also, we are compelled to conclude that these arts were not general in
the provinces, so that we must not expect to see them applied in the
case of the Newark clocks, much less in that of the rural specimens,
though there are some fine mahogany cases which are exceptions to this.
The list of Newark makers that follows shows the division of--(1) those
who made brass dials only; (2) those who made both brass and painted
dials; and (3) those who made clocks with painted dials only.
This delegation of the brass dials to a secondary position must be
attributed to their cost when compared with that of the painted dials.
The makers of this last popular style also made the shortfall and
mantle clocks.
In the last period the cases were doubtless made by Cawthorn, or
Dalman, or Fletcher, or Parlby, but in the earlier ones the case
makers are quite as unknown as the clock work would be were it not
for the names inscribed and the incentive thus given to learn more
about them. The later makers are identified by such details as the
dates on watch-case papers (some of them worth illustrating), by the
hall-markings of the cases of their watches, by scraps in the form of
receipts for work done, and by leaves from tradesmen’s old ledgers; but
for our knowledge of the earlier makers we have to go further afield,
and help in this direction is gratefully acknowledged.
The date of a clock may be gauged fairly accurately by noting first the
plainness of outline of the cases and the length of the door, which
in early times was very pronounced. There was usually a bottle glass
panel in the door. In a few years plainness gave way to cross-banded
ornament, and this in its turn to veneering with mahogany, or, in the
better cases, to mahogany with veneered facings. These styles were
ousted by the ornate cases in light oak, with very short doors and
mahogany decorations in veneer and line inlay. As a general rule,
however, the earlier the work the better it is, both as to case and
clock, especially the latter.
My own connection with the clockmakers of Newark has only been of a
secondary character, although I have spent many happy days among their
work. Yet I remember that I am the last apprentice of the late John
Harvey (who died in 1886), who was himself the last apprentice of
Thomas Hardy, the survivor of Hardy & Son, who are mentioned above.
