  We describe the design and expected performance of Clover, a new instrument
designed to measure the B-mode polarization of the cosmic microwave background.
The proposed instrument will comprise three independent telescopes operating at
90, 150 and 220 GHz and is planned to be sited at Dome C, Antarctica. Each
telescope will feed a focal plane array of 128 background-limited detectors and
will measure polarized signals over angular multipoles 20 < l < 1000. The
unique design of the telescope and careful control of systematics should enable
the B-mode signature of gravitational waves to be measured to a
lensing-confusion-limited tensor-to-scalar ratio r~0.005.
