The slate dial on the church wall has a shape which is quite common, having a central arch and circular finials at either side. This one has lost its right hand finial and is not in the best of condition. It declines East and shows the undivided hours from 5am to 4pm in an unusual mixture of Arabic and Roman numerals. Across the arch is the date 1686. The initials HW which appear on the dial may be those of the churchwarden or, less likely, the maker. It measures 610mmw x 760mmh.
