Some of these are in private gardens, but the majority are publicly available.

All Saints’ Church, Horseheath

The dial is set in the flint wall over the porch. It is strongly canted in on the west side of a framed opening. Black Arabic numerals, from 6am to 6pm, are clearly visible but the hour lines are faint. There are small diamonds to mark half hours. The gnomon is a solid triangular sheet with scalloped under edge and some corrosion at the top of the style edge. The date at top of dial may read 1566, but this is unlikely to be correct.
