On the front lawn of the college is a stone horizontal dial 995mm in diameter. It shows the hours V - VII divided into halves and quarters. The gnomon is of brass. The dial has the motto ’ Horas non numero nisi serenas’ (I count the bright hours only’). Round the vertical rim is recorded the fact that this is a memorial dial given by Mrs Sylvia Platt in memory of her husband Christopher Platt 1934-1989.
