Scope and Content Clock mechanism inside Auchtermuchty Town-House, Fife Auchtermuchty Town-House was built in 1728, after the burgh council decided they needed a 'good tolbooth with a clock and bell and steeple for containing the same'. It was paid for by borrowing from local tradesmen and the kirk session. The original clock from 1728 is still in the steeple. In the middle of the picture, there is a metal plate recording its repair in 1740 and 1841. The clock face on the outside was made in 1897. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
