We are a working museum, with many of the clocks, watches and other timepieces on display in working action. You’ll be mesmerised by the sights and sounds. You can see hundreds of different timekeepers- ranging from tiny watches to enormous church clock mechanisms. From impressive artistic and engineering designs, to other ordinary looking clocks and watches with the most incredible histories, you are sure to find something to get your imagination ticking!
Discover incredible exhibits including the watch worn by Captain Scott on his ill-fated polar expedition of 1912. See a working 17th century lantern clock and hear its loud chime. Listen to the sounds of Britain’s first three Speaking Clocks, including the voice of the original 1936 machine in working action.
The Museum is based at the home of the British Horological Institute at Upton Hall, in the village of Upton, Nottinghamshire. We are located between the scenic towns of Newark on Trent and Southwell, near Nottingham. During your visit, you can also explore the grounds and grand rooms of the beautiful, grade II listed building that houses the Museum.
Whether you’re visiting with family, friends or as a group there is something for all ages and interests at the Museum of Timekeeping.

I'm constantly learning how people from past centuries were way smarter than I consciously gave them credit for. _Wow_ That mercury pendulum is _sweet_
Glad to hear that you enjoyed the video.

Time passes, but time stands still!
Your museum is beautiful!
My favorite is the telephone exchange clock, I was very sad when our system was removed.
Do you have any dual metal clocks using nickel, rather than mercury?
Anyone know what the music piece at the beginning is?
Lucky man....
