This slate dial is on the South wall of the nave and measures 380mm square.There is no date but it is probably of the 18th century. It is a plain dial showing hours VI to VI divided into halves by decorated lines and, less obviously, into quarters. It lifts itself out of the ordinary by having ’Lat N 50° 54’’ engraved across the top and this is correct for the location. The four randomly placed holes suggest that somebody has been shooting at it.
