St Michael & All Angels Church., Ledbury

In the West window of the North aisle is a circular stained glass vertical South dial which dates from the 17th century. It was restored in 1988 but since it faces NW it was probably deemed pointless to replace the missing gnomon. It shows VI - VI undivided. The numerals are read from inside the chapter ring but the evening VI appears as IV. Tendril-like decoration at the top of the dial which is 380mm in diameter. (The dial was originally mounted upside-down, but corrected on restoration 1n 1988.)
