This is an interesting circular vertical declining dial mounted on the brick wall over a door at the rear of the hotel. Simple (though original) iron gnomon. Sadly has most of its lines painted out. Shows 5am to 5pm. Some morning hour lines visible and faint Roman numerals for VII & VIII. Date taken from that of building.
Polebarn Hotel, Polebarn Road, Trowbridge, Wiltshire
