The Clock is Ticking!
Rural Hill has been given an exciting opportunity to acquire the tall case clock purchased by Major John Davidson from the noted Massachusetts clock maker, Aaron Willard. The label dates the clock to 1800 and this rare artifact of the history of our region is in excellent working condition.
