This church clock is on Egloshayle Parish Church in Wadebridge.
Wadebridge has two main churches; neither are in the town itself but have evolved from the original chapels, on the outskirts of Wadebridge. Egloshayle Church stands close to the river on the Northern side. The church is largely medieval in construction; the tower is 80 feet high and was a gift from the Reverend John Lovibond, builder of the town’s bridge.
Its fifteenth century bridge across the River Camel is worth a visit. It was built by the Reverend Lovibond in 1460 and has seventeen arches along its 320 foot length.
