After Selwood’s death in 1651, Beck was transferred to carry on his apprenticeship under Thomas Loomes until 1653. Richard’s short working life was around six years and his work produced in this time cannot therefore have been made in great numbers. Only a handful of lantern clocks by Richard Beck is known today, and these clocks are signed in slightly varying ways but generally ‘near ye French Church’ or ‘at ye French Church’. These were all made as balance wheel examples, as the pendulum did not appear till 1658.

Richard Beck produced fine clocks with excellent engraved dials. Tragically his brief life as a young clockmaker who flourished during the Civil War came to an end when he died in 1659 at a young age of twenty-seven.
