St Mary’s Church, Dunsford

A fine new wooden dial replaces the "delapidated" (sic) one, also of wood, noted but not drawn by Mrs Crowley in the 1950s. It is on the church porch and declines East. The hours shown are VII - V divided into halves and quarters. It is in a neat frame and there is no attempt at decoration, no motto and no date. It just tells the time. It measures 900mmh x 600mmw.
