\"TextI first met Darlah and Steve Thomas at Lyme Park 2014 with the Manchester Branch of the BHI and the Northern section of the AHS. We had another encounter in 2019 when the Northern section AHS had a full day celebrating 50 years of existence, Darlah giving the closing lecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Darlah and her husband Steve are collectors and researchers having published The Gloverstone Clockmakers of Chester, (their hometown), Joyce of Whitchurch, 1690-1965. The Turret Clocks of T Cooke & Sons of York, and many other articles www.inbeat.org<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

During Lockdown 20 years of compiling information, in my opinion, the best Skeleton clockmaker James Condliff brings to light a family who were prolific 19th<\/sup> century clockmakers of Liverpool. They not only produced domestic and board room clocks, Skeleton clocks but Regulators and Turret clocks. Researching information on the family has been difficult as they did not advertise or produce catalogues and lived quietly. There emerges more to the story as Dealers, clock makers, restorers and conservators alike have shared their photographs and information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remembering as we do Beresford Hutchinson in our lecture tonight, I am sure there would be many more recollections he would have contributed from his encyclopaedic mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
