Armilliary sphere with polar circles. Located in the garden behind the hall; misaligned and is possibly not in its original location. Overall height is about 3000cm. The Hall is dated 1870, and the dial may be of similar date. Very ornate stone plinth starting to fall apart (April 2026). No engravings are visible on the sphere.
