Holy Trinity Church, Meldreth

The dial is mounted within the crenellations above the south entrance porch archway. The lower surface of the dial-plate is badly worn and is also cracked across. It shows the hours 6am to 6pm with Roman numerals; using XII for noon and IIII for 4pm. The numerals appear to be upright along the horizontal base and at right angles to the sides, to be read as from the inside of the dial. ’Lambda’ style gnomon.
