    French or German?

    Hi all I attach some photos of my latest acquisition. The plaque dates the clock to October 1874 (in Welsh). No maker's name, just the serial number and number 6 on the movement. Pendulum has a different serial number. Can someone guestimate where it was made and the maker? Thanks

    Thankyou both I assumed that after 1926 German clocks had to scribe Foreign on their movements and case. So the date at the base of the clock could be 1924. The case certainly looks English.
