Full Restoration of Church Clocks (hourly chiming), St John the Evangelist Church

This project is a major community and church outreach project, which involves dismantling all main working parts and links to four individual clock faces; washing down and cleaning all gears; checking and replacing any damaged bearings; inspecting hour tubes and minute arbors; reassembling all components; oiling and restoring clocks to full working order. The clocks stopped working six months ago. The church is Grade II listed and the clocks are a replica of the workings of Big Ben, having been installed in 1891 by Gillett and Company.
