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.
Situated next to the buttress at the eastern end of the South aisle this slate dial’s anticlockwise tilt means that we cannot believe what it tells us. Across the top is the name Joseph Phillips and we know he is not the churchwarden or the vicar since he also appears on the dial he made at Ugborough five miles away. Across the bottom of the dial is the date 1768 and it takes ten Roman numerals to tell us that. It shows the hours VI to VI divided into halves by decorated lines, and into quarters. The dial is 380mm square.
