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

In the gable is a stone vertical declining dial about 450mm x 650mm probably dates from 1659 when the almshouses were built and has black painted Arabic numbers which appear in relief on a white ground. The hours shown are 6am to 6pm divided into halves and quarters. The gnomon is probably a modern replacement.
