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.
On the left of the path leading to the porch is a brass horizontal sundial which shows the hours IIII - VIII (using XII for noon) divided into halves, quarters and intervals of 5 minutes Numerals read from outside the chapter ring. It bears the name Anjelli (T)lumlin about whom nothing is known. He is not the maker since the name Negretti & Zambra also appears in cursive script on the dial-plate. Could he be the person who restored the dial in 1887 for Queen Victoria’s Jubilee? There is an 8-point compass rose in the centre of the dial plate. The motto on 3 sides of the stone mount reads "Tyme / tryeth / troth". Mounted on octagonal stone pedestal with square capital and large square base. The dial measures 275mm in diameter. Several mass dials can be seen on the church wall.
