This unpainted stone dial of 1909 is canted out by 3 degrees to face true south, and is carved with numerals and letters in relief. The bar gnomon is supported by a St Andrews cross (for the dedication of the church), standing on a horizontal ‘S’.  The motto is from I Chron. xx. 15.

Of unusual interest is the Equation of Time table printed by F Barker & Son Ltd, tailored to this location, and displayed inside the church.  Barkers will have often provided such tables, but they are rarely seen nowadays.
