Notice biographique

Lewis Stafford Northcote (d.1977) was an early member of the Antiquarian Horological Society, who made considerable contribution to antiquarian horology. Together with the late Dr Beeson, he helped advance the study of turret clocks by discovering, recording and classifying clocks of importance, not least the significant clock at Idbury, with its two-plane escapement. He was also a superb draughtsman and many horological works published in the 1960s and 1970s bear evidence of his craftsmanship.
