Due to the date that this church was built the clock must be a later addition. It is located on the west face of the tower.
The clock's face is round and coloured light blue and has lead flashing around the top to prevent water ingress. All the markings and decoration, of the clock, are painted directly on to the face. They appear to be white in colour.
Near the edge of the face are two thin lines that are close together. The inner of the two lines has the minute marks touching it on its inner edge. The hour marks, in the same pale colour, are within the minute marks and are traditional Roman numerals as displayed on a clock face. The hands, that are without tails, are the same colour and are of a basic design.
The blue paint of the clock's face is starting to peel away in places with the area between "I" and "V" being particularly bad.
