Dial in Merseyside

A horizontal bronze dial in reasonable condition, octagonal in shape and bearing a compass rose. The inscrription given in the church booklet but not visible on the dial is: ’I am a shadow So art thou / I mark time Dost thou’. The gnomon is a replacement: the original was pierced and somewhat flimsy. The dial was stolen in 2002. It has been replaced by a replica (see SRN 8564).
