St Dunstan's Clock, London

The clock at St Dunstan-in-the-West is one of the oldest in London. Installed just after the Great Fire of London in 1671, it was the first clock in London to have a minute hand, with two figurines striking the hours and quarters with clubs, turning their heads whilst doing so
