The dial is very small (reported as ’2 or 3 inches’), under a wire mesh protective cover, and mounted on a colossal stone plinth. Is this the original dial in the reference below?
See Ref: The sundial was erected in 1666 to the memory of Captain Edward Christian, sometime Governor of the island, by his son. It bears the inscription "Ev [Evan or Euan] Christian fecit, 1666. Latitude 52.8".
