Sundial set in niche in brickwork of the South porch. A horizontal rod is currently incorrectly positioned in a hole on the dial to act as the gnomon. The dial probably had a conventional gnomon at one time as evidence for a correctly placed gnomon exists. The dial shows the time from 6am to 6pm with the hours indicated in Roman numerals. A Cross Patty marks the Noon line. There are further circles inscribed above the markings of the main dial.
