St Andrew’s Church, Kildwick-in-Craven

The dial is on the south wall over the Priest’s door. Inscription reads: "Haworth Currer Arm Dono Dedit". Date at bottom corners of dial - 1729. Aligned Roman numerals read from inside - unusual on a vertical dial. Shows 6am to 6pm in half and quarter hours, and uses IIII and XII. Gnomon has ’S’ shaped supporter. Mrs Gatty records a dial with a different inscription and the present plate may have been covered.
