St Peter’s Church, Maxey

The dial is on a buttress at the south-east end of the south aisle. The upright Roman numerals that remain visible run from 6am to 5pm with noon as XII and 4 as IV. There are full length hour lines, with shorter half- and quarter-hour lines. The gnomon is slightly bent, and has a waved horizontal support. Motto, along top edge, ’Man fleeth as a shadow’.
