The dial block is mounted on a circular-sectioned column on a three-stepped circular base, in gardens to the west side of the house. The top of the block has a pyramid and ball finial. The four dial faces use Roman numerals. The north and south faces have circular chapter rings, painted blue, and have Roman numerals using XII an IIII; and the east and west have a blue diagonal hour line, and use Arabic numerals. The date ’1607’ is on the north face. The east and west gnomons contain possibly a monogram including ’M’.
