St Constantine & St Aegidius’ Church, Milton Abbot

This slate dial on the porch is canted markedly to the East in order to achieve South orientation. It is a simple square (300mm) dial with the date 1761 across the top. A sun face lies inside the semicircle surrounding the root of the gnomon. It show VI - VI divided into halves and quarters. The half-hour markers each carry a fleur-de-lys.
