The clock on the tower at St Michael's Church in Brierley Hill has undergone a substantial renovation, with work being done to weld and re-gild the 8ft clock faces and install new workings inside the tower.
The original clocks were paid for in the 1800s by industrialist John Corbett and have been a feature of the church since.
Around £19,000 was raised by the church to pay for the repairs, which came after local retired businessman Tony Whittaker, a patron of the church, discovered the poor state of the clock while checking a leak in the roof.
