Church clock on the bell tower of St Peter's church, Higham-on-the-Hill. It consists of a frame of concentric circles fitted with gilded roman numerals and minute markers, with gilded hour and minute hands.
The church was built between 1130 and 1180 - only the fine Norman tower remains. The other parts of the present church were added in the 18th and 19th centuries. The clock was added in 1873, and the mechanism was automated in 2016.
