BRIDOL is the British Sundial Society's Register of Fixed and Mass Dials, which gives detail and photographs of about 8000 fixed sundials and 3000 mass dials in the UK.
Some of these are in private gardens, but the majority are publicly available.
The dial is high above the porch, and is inscribed ’Hoc Sciatherictim erectum fiiit pro commodo hujis Ecclesiae AD 1792’ (’This sundial was erected for the benefit of the church’). Also marked with the latitude of 55 N, and a declination of 4.25 E. However the dial now faces 1.5 W of south, and the wall itself declines 8 W of south. It is finely divided to 5 min. Intervals. The dial was skilfully made by William Wood, a local stonemason whose name is hidden from view on the upper edge. It was recently restored and the original wrought iron gnomon replaced by a stainless steel one.
