BRIDOL is the British Sundial Society's Register of Fixed and Mass Dials, which gives detail and photographs of about 8000 fixed sundials and 3000 mass dials in the UK.
Some of these are in private gardens, but the majority are publicly available.
The dial is on a rock by the church door. A plaque on the stone refers to the vicar Robert ’Wonderful’ Walker, who used it as a stool for clipping sheep about the middle of the C18. The dial shows hours V - XII - IIII - VIII (the earliest hours are unclear), read from the inside, with a noon gap, and divided to quarter hours inside the chapter ring and to five minutes outside, marked 0, 30, 60 in Arabic numerals. The name BELLMAN is clear at the south, followed probably by BROUGHTON but the start is obliterated by a screw fixing.
