Motto reads: "Ut Hora Sic Vita". Similar mottos have been recorded at Felton, Heddon-on-the-Wall, Whitton-le-Wear and Jarrow. This dial of 1727 is on the south chancel wall, to the right of the door, but may originally have been above the porch. Shows 10am to 7pm in half hours and quarters. Erected when Bishop Butler (or Burton?) was Rector.
