The dial is on the south wall. Only part of the gnomon survives. Numerals are black-letter forms, possibly Gothic. Noon line has four dot decoration. Numerals after XII illegible. Shows 5am to 4pm in hours. May be an interesting transitional dial. Royal Commission on Historic Monuments, Dorset (N), p90.
