The term Longcase clock encompasses Grandfather, Grandmother and Granddaughter clocks. The difference being the size of the clock, with Grandfather being the biggest and Granddaughter the smallest. All are considered Longcase clocks. These clocks are tall, usually around 5 to 8 feet, freestanding pendulum driven clocks with the pendulum housed inside the main case.
Longcase clocks usually feature decorated or carved towers (or waists of the case) and hoods or bonnets that surround the clock's face. Most longcase clocks chime on each hour or fraction of an hour.
The clockmaker William Clement is credited with design of the longcase clock in the late 17th century.
