Title: Ropley Church [Go to resource]
Description: The twelfth century church of St Peter was extensively restored in 1847 and 1897. It is a mainly brick structure with a shingled tower and has a thirteenth century door protected by a seventeenth century porch. The clock was added to celebrate the coronation of King Edward VII. The clock was officially started at noon on Wednesday October 7th, 1903, and dedicated at the evening service on Sunday October 18th, when an impressive sermon on the value of time was preached by the Vicar, the Reverend W H Leak.
