Village clock on the tower of All Saints' church, Newtown Linford.

The porch, which was added in 1860, contains a plaque describing how the villagers paid for the church clock to be installed in 1953 using money raised from their highly successful pageant "Lady Jane Grey Returns", written by Jack Ayling.

An iron circular frame with gilded minute marks in the outer ring, and gilded roman numerals and hands. A six pointed star decorates the central circular part of the clockface.
