An inscription at the base reads: ’He until midsummer then she until midwinter show noon Greenwich Mean Time.’ There is a sculpture of two children leaning over the wall above the dial plate. The noduses for the two noon mark analemmas are the tip of a leaf held by the boy and a hole in the clenched fist of the girl. A most unusual mark. The dial was the winner of the BSS Awards Scheme 2000, Amateur Class.
