An early Victorian Domestic Regulator Longcase clock, by Thomas Bunyan, Manchester, in a mahogany case with glazed arch trunk door, the hood with a carved foliate surround to the dial.

Sunstantial four pillar movement with dead beat escapement and maintaining power.

Typical of a regulator, it has a silvered and engraved scale below the pendulum for accurate set up and monitoring.
