Smith & Sons are recorded as working as clockmakers in St. John's Square, Clerkenwell, circa 1850-1900. They were one of two clockmakers who probably produced more skeleton clocks than all the other makers put together. The Smiths regularly produced catalogues illustrating some of their skeleton clocks and exhibited their clocks at the Great Exhibition in 1851 ** Tom Tower, Christ Church, Oxford was named after the bell it houses 'Great Tom' and was rung at 9.00pm Local Mean Time to signal the closing of the college gates
