pendulum stops swinging after I rewind the clock?

the clock was stopped and i rewound as usual, started the pendulum but it slows and stops swinging

The casing may have become warped over time, and hence the pendulum is now running out of true. Try lifting the clock on one side (or the other) by placing a thin wad of cardboard beneath the feet. You may need to have the clock permanently tilted to one side or the other (or leaning slightly forward or back) to allow the pendulum to swing freely and evenly.

can you email me a photo of the rear of your clock i want to see the top end of the crutch that is the part that the pendulum hangs on. zephyr206e@ntlworld.com
