BRIDOL is the British Sundial Society's Register of Fixed and Mass Dials, which gives detail and photographs of about 8000 fixed sundials and 3000 mass dials in the UK.

Some of these are in private gardens, but the majority are publicly available.

St Martin of Tours Church, West Coker

The dial is at the east end of the south wall of the nave just below the eaves, about 5000 above ground level. It shows 6am to 6pm in upright Roman hour numerals, with a cross for noon. In 1994 it had a painted iron sheet gnomon but this was missing by 2022.
