This is the Tolsey Clock, it is a famous landmark in Wotton. A clock existed here, at the top of the high street in Wotton, in the 17th century. Various repairs were carried out on the clock over the years. In the second half of the nineteenth century, the driving mechanism of the clock was in the loft of the Tolsey building. A man was employed regularly to wind it up and look after it. A plaque on the clock lists some of the people who wound the clock up manually. #cam_95 #clock #tolsey #wotton
